I have rebuilted the bottom end of my motor. and turbo charged my car with a full race staged 3 turbo kit. I know the stock prelude uses 5w30 and 10w30. What kinda oil do you use in your Turbo prelude. and do you have any problems are do u like it.

 

I woudl say 5w30 should still be fine.

I wouldn't change if i were you.

 

the block in my car is not stock. its a bored , slived , and has a compression 9:5.1. I was tolded to use 10W40. I just wanna get other opinions on what oil to use.

 

5w30 or 10w30 should be fine. Use synthetic (Amsoil or Mobil, etc).

 

Since you live in NEWORLEAN go ahead with 5W-30

 

I use Valvoline Racing 20w50

 

10-30

I can't believe anyone with such poor grammar would have enough money to "rebuitled and slive" a motor and turbo it.

5 w 30

 

It largely depends on your main/rod bearing clearances..

My clearances are on the loose side of the factory recommendations, and I run 5w40 or 15w40 depending on the time of the year..
