Anyone have GC in their STi?

Is anyone with a Subaru Impreza WRX STi using GC and planning on having it analyzed? Ideally, I'd like to see someone with low miles (less than 30k for sure) run GC and have it analyzed, but I'll take whatever I can get!

I have an '05 STi that I plan on running GC in once I hit 10,000 miles (that will be in 2,500 miles). Thus far I've run Mobil Drive Clean 5w-30 (UOA was done and posted), Motorcraft semi-syn 5w-30 (in the STi now, will be changed this weekend and sent off to Blackstone for analysis). I'll be trying Mobil 7500 semi-syn for the next 2,500 miles. So keep your eye out for my UOA with GC sometime in the future...I'd say probably sometime in July.

Thanks for letting me know, Andy. I was going through the reports here on STi's (since it's one of my dream cars) and I was very surprised and a little disappointed to see some of the wear metals so high. I was curious, because of GC's now legendary status, if perhaps GC could be the one to show good numbers. We'll see!

I'm putting GC in tonight. Switching over from Redline 5w30.

Not an STi, but here's my GC UOA on another 2.5T.

Running '05 GC in there now.

Just an update on my post above. I installed GC in my STi a few weeks ago and likely will run it for 4,000 or 5,000 miles. At the rate I drive, I won't have a UOA on the GC until sometime in December or January.

Also, here's a nice GC UOA on 2004_STI's STi:
