I think the most important thing with your Subaru is allow it to warm up before using the turbo hard and ALWAYS allow a cooldown period of at least a min idling before you shut in down no matter what oil.
Since you are in CA, get over to a Checkers and pick up some Pennzoil Plat 5w-30 for $1.99 a quart.
As far as oil fitlers, any of them will be just fine for less than 4k OCIs.
I've got a 07 Outback and so far, I like the Supertech filters ST6607 on mine.
Also, watch the @#$%^& dipstick. It is one of the worst ones I've ever used. Very EASY to over fill.
