Default What oil to use?

Time to service the car again, but have modified it heavily since the last service. Was using Castrol magnatec GTX 10w40 back then. was wondering what to use now as im running more power and mods or to continue using the same oil. been told by a few people to use silkolene 15w50, but dont know if its any good. anyone used or uses it out there? if so any good? please any advice appreciated as service is due in 1 week. just to let you know am running over 300bhp and its a uk turbo classic MY00. thanks.

Silkolene ProS is actually 10w/50 and would be fine in the classic engine. Don't worry, it's good stuff (as are quite a few oils available) and Opie Oils are doing an offer on Silkolene at the moment. See Trader announcements.
