> “It’s an econo-box with a turbo slapped on” I would agree with you if you were referring to a deisel engine with a turbo such as VW, but not on an engine that makes ~200-400hp with little difficulty.

200hp is a performance engine?

Fine. Not an econo box … an inexpensive, mass-produced, low-cost, low tolerance motor with a turbo slapped on it sound better?

By performance motor, they’re generally referring to something more exotic. Like 12-cylinder 3.0s that spin to 10,000 RPM and make 500 hp.

Won’t find any magnets there.

Oil is oil. You can give up a bit of shock protection in the name of less drag.
