I also agree the FA/FB motors are a different beast so it may be a mute point even discussing it.

I've run both the API SM and SN Mobil1 0W-40's and my UOA's were excellent. It's becoming the alternative to T6 since the ZDDP is nearly as high, it's a lighter 40 grade, it has a good HTHS, and has a very good detergent/dispersant package. I would never run the regular M1 5W-30, or most Resource Conserving oils, in an EJ turbo, but M1 5W-30 ESP (meets Euro specs) is proving to be a good choice as well.
The uoa thread on this forum shows any GF5/SN oil does well in the FA engine for most driving conditions.
