Overview
MOTUL 8100 POWER 5W-50 is a High Performance 100% Synthetic ESTER engine oil inspired by competition, specially designed for gasoline engines — tuned or high performance, naturally aspirated or turbocharged, indirect or direct injection — operating across a wide range of engine revs and temperatures in the most severe road or racing conditions. It is suitable for gasoline engines requiring SAE 5W-50 and API SP oil; its optimized high viscosity grade brings maximum reliability and high protection against fuel dilution.
Compatibility
Compatibility information not available.
Key Features
- ESTER Technology: 100% synthetic, competition-derived, outstanding oil film resistance at very high temperatures for maximum power/torque and wear protection; stable oil pressure road or racing
- API SP standard: addresses LSPI/"Rumble" risk in downsized direct-injection turbocharged gasoline engines
- Full compatibility with biofuels: LPG, CNG, Bioethanol up to E85
- Excellent oil flow, particularly resistant to high temperatures for better oil-consumption control and higher wear protection
- Optimized high viscosity grade SAE 5W-50 brings maximum reliability and high protection against fuel dilution
Applications
- Gasoline engines, tuned or high performance, naturally aspirated or turbocharged, indirect or direct injection
- Engines operating over a wide range of speeds and temperatures, in severe road or racing conditions
- Vehicles requiring an API SP viscosity grade 5W-50 lubricant
- Downsized, direct-injection turbocharged engines requiring LSPI protection
- Specific Ford performance applications requiring FORD WSS-M2C931-D: Focus RS 2.3 EcoBoost AWD and Ford GT (2016+), Mustang GT350/GT350R (2018+); legacy -C/-B coverage: Mustang GT V8 5.0L, Boss 302 V8 5.0L, Mustang GT350 (2015+), Shelby GT500 (2006+); legacy -A: Ford GT V8 5.4L (2004–2006)
- Engines running on biofuels including LPG, CNG, and Bioethanol up to E85
