A buddy of mine just picked up a Vortech Mustang GT. My question is, do we have to change the oil in any different way. On the voretch page it says

" What type of maintenance is required with a Vortech supercharger system?

Follow the vehicle owners' manual recommendations for your vehicle. We do ask that you change your engine oil at regular intervals because the engine oil cools and lubricates the supercharger gears and bearings. When changing your oil, remove and clean the oil inlet fitting and strainer. For severe duty or racing, it is suggested that you install an oil cooler and filter. We suggest following the manufacturers recommendations concerning oil type and oil change interval. You can use mineral based, synthetic blend, or full synthetic oils with a Vortech supercharger system as long as the oil meets or exceeds vehicle manufacturer recommendations. "


If im reading correct we can just run the standard oil, maybe doing Mobile 1 ?

Yes, run whatever you normally run. Vortech recommends changing it every 3k mi despite what the oil manufacturer says (some claim as high as 7500mi).
