Plus the Special Tec seems like a great deal right now on FCP. Would I be fine running this stuff in SoCal on a stage 2 tune?
That 5W-40 will be fine for you in SoCal lol. It doesn't get cold enough to where you're worrying about the winter viscosity rating and it has the same 40 weight when hot as all the other European oils.

Get whatever is the cheapest, full synthetic oil you can find that meets spec, and change oil at 5k intervals. 0W-30, 5W-30, 0W-40, 5W-40.
