best oil you can get is miller oil. not recommended as a first oil as its that good at a lubricant that it doesntlet things wear in but since yours has worn in already id recommend it 100% very healthy for your engine...

no idea how much it would take... and its relatively cheap too, i think about half the price of castrol magnatek

oil capacity is 4.5L i think, i have used magnatec/vw stnd semi syn for the last 58K. I will be using either magnatec or Halfords fully synthetic next. I change the oil and filter every 6k or 6 months.

This used in a Jabbasport stage3 IHI ibiza.

Lots of oils out there but if it does 95% of its time doing normal road driving then are the motorsport oils really required. If you want some try Silkolene Pro s.
