Amsoil 0w-30 SSO & Ea oil filters. ^^^ above^^^ My OCI avg.15k Running Cobb stage1 93 map, max boost is still 16.2psi up to 174k. Original motor & turbo are running like new with no shaft play.. Now I want stage 2+, GMS Crossover & UP pipe, & LW crank pulley & heat shield. Invidia DP & V2 cat back, Perrin TIH, Racer X FMIC. With running Cobb stage 2 93Oct. map. For the last 3000+ miles. Waiting upgrade stage 2, 93 Oct. AP map from Tuning Alliance.
I'm very happy with the reliability of this car at over177k, with AMSOIL lubricant protecting everything.
Crap I've only been putting in 4.2 quarts.
Should have known better than to trust the manual.

Jk I actually overfill anyway so I'm like 4.5 quarts. But that actually sounds like a more cost effective option than the KillerB pan if it really picks up two quarts. Might be worth looking into for that cost...............
