just any decent Ester based synthetic 10w40 or 5w40 will do you. It's the better of the synthetic oils and far out performs regular synthetics.

something like this..

This one works out the cheapest for enough to fill from dry.

I was recommended a ester synthetic 10w40 for my road car 400+ ,and a few other i know all use Millers CFS. As above though any other make is fine.
