I use Mobil 1 5W30 now, but what should I use after the supercharger?

Use redline, it's the most expensive one, but it really makes your engine smoother than using mobil1. For viscosity, I see some people are still using 5W-30. I think it's all based on your engine's age. If it is over (say 30K), try changing to 10W-40, and over 60K, use 15W-50. The more number you get on viscosity is just to bridge the gap which become larger and larger as your engine is getting older, it's called engine fatigue. Supercharger doesn't affect any gap on your engine, but it just requires the fully synthetic one. Believe me try redline oil, get it from www.jegs.com Good luck.
