None of the above. Get your oil tested and find out what works but the above 3 are all good oils.
Ahhh a discussion as old as time
I've used 8100 XCESS on multiple FI cars with good results via Blackstone.
Reality is there's a lot of quality oils out there. The interval is so much more important. Swap it every 2.5-5k miles and you'll be in good shape

There was a post/video going around, was it Forced Performance? About how most oils are actually trash due to emissions standards or something like that.
Rotella t6 till I'm stupid rich!
I'm a huge advocate of a strong zddp package! The zinc and phosphorus levels you get out of t6 rival some of the best race oils! For half the price or more!
Some will argue for sure! But for a meth or alkyd car that your dumping oil out the drain plug every 2-3k I just can't justify expensive race oils!
Tons of racers domestic and foreign have been using Rotella for decades.. Because it works!!!!

Its a shame that most people don't know that.. Everyone thinks Mobil one is magical.. Its magical how many people they have believing that shit!
Motul 300v hands down. But not a dd oil. Buy it from fcpeuro and return it free when u do your changes tho. Sooo u only gotta pay once. 5w40. Best u can buy
It's not magical but it's a Good group III and tests very well, I have been using it for years. Others haven't tested as well, such as RP, Castrol GC, etc.
Then it's a non issue.
I ran 5W-40 (only weight I think) T6 in another vehicle I owned and it tested pretty well, not quiote as good as M1 0W-40 but for the price it's great.
