Nice!! I'm on st2+'s, been running Pennzoil Platinum Euro 5w-40, but you should be good with any LL-01 off the shelf oil. Just make sure to keep the interval down to around 5k miles between changes. Was it a local shop that installed them? I'm also in the DMV and always looking for good shops, plus I need a meth system installed so...

Pure turbos advised me to run at least 5W40 and to change every 3k.
Also they advised that diesel oil is preferable due to higher shear strength.
Royal purple HPS 10W40 is the closest thing near me that match their criteria.

Slightly different.

300V Power: https://d23zpyj32c5wn3.cloudfront.ne...pdf?1492017370

8100 X-cess: https://d23zpyj32c5wn3.cloudfront.ne...pdf?1492016155

8100 X-cess is BMW LL-01 certified, and is geared towards daily driven cars. 300v is better for cars that are constantly seeing WOT conditions...

Many people are using Pennzoil Platinum Euro Full Synthetic 5W-40 Motor Oil that is BMW LL01 certified.

https://www.amazon.com/Pennzoil-Plat...s%2C747&sr=8-6

I use this oil as well.
