Motul 8100 POWER 5W-40 Full Synthetic (Ester) Motor Oil – 5 Liter (111809 / MOT-111809)
Motul 8100 POWER 5W-40 (5 Liter) — Ester Synthetic for Turbo + High-Heat Performance
Motul 8100 POWER 5W-40 is a high performance 100% synthetic (Ester technology) engine oil designed for tuned/high-performance, naturally aspirated or turbocharged, port or direct injection engines operating across wide speeds/temps — including harsh road or racing-style conditions.
If you’re building a reliable setup for Subaru turbo, BMW turbo, or Porsche performance driving, this oil is engineered for strong oil-film resistance at very high temperature, stable oil pressure, and API SP protection that targets modern DI turbo risks like LSPI (low-speed pre-ignition).
Why this oil:
-
API SP performance standard (modern gasoline protection; backward compatible vs older API categories)
-
Ester Technology / 100% Synthetic for outstanding high-temp oil film strength and wear protection
-
Designed to help protect downsized turbo direct-injection engines from LSPI
-
Optimized 5W-40 viscosity for faster flow at startup and strong protection under heat/load
-
Compatible with catalytic converters and a wide range of fuels including E85 up to 85% ethanol (plus LPG/CNG where applicable)
Best for:
-
Turbocharged & high-performance gasoline engines (including direct injection)
-
Performance street driving, spirited canyon runs, track-day heat
