Heya fellas, great site here with a lot of info! My 2005 STi has right at 10,500 miles on it right now and I am going to resume doing my own oil changes. I used to change my own oil in my turbocharged Civic. I used Mobil 1 5w30 in that car but never was overly impressed with the job it did and how clean it stayed even at regular 3,500 mile changes. I live in Eastern TN where we see weather in the winter with lows of anywhere from 5 to 15 degrees and highs in the summer up to 100. Every day when the car is warmed up to operating temp, I make it do what it was made to do - go fast(speed limit withstanding, I just like to get TO the speed limit fast =) -. Is there a good full synthetic that you guys would recommend me to use based on my climate and driving habits? I'm not afraid to spend a little money on a good oil, but I'd rather get it right rather than trial and error like I've done previously. Thanks in advance for your input guys!
