Tuned c43 oil change intervala

Hey folks, I'm about to install a JB4 in my facelift c43... I bought the car about a month ago used with 80,000 km. The oil looks clean and fresh still but I want to stay on top of it so what's the recommendation for both oil type, and frequency for a tuned engine?

So not more frequent than the manual in a modded car? Is there a preference for oil brand/type here?

Just rolled 80,000mi, 65k of which have been with JB4 running E30 blended fuel. I've changed every 10k, without issue. When I changed plugs, they looked surprisingly clean considering how regularly I push the car.

Sweet, my 19 C43 arrives next week... probably going to makes some changes, but nice to see another owner in Omaha. However it is a CPO with warranty through 2026... so I need to be careful lol.
