How long have you had your bugeye for? The subaru is rated for 5w 30 wt. I prefer to use Mobil 1 fully synthetic oil.

I haven't had good luck with mobil one. my motor seemed to consume it. I've had good luck with redline and royal purple.

Amsoil is the best hands down. Search mobil one on nasioc you won't like what you will see!

AMSoil is the best synthetic in the US. If that didnt exsist, I would use Motul.

My homie, Bugeyerex02, runs the 10w-30 Dominator Racing Amsoil.

Actually the EaU13 or is it EaU013 amsoil oil filter has a synthetic media inside. the 12 is what amsoil says should be on the car but the 13 is roughly a half a inch longer than the 12 and the stock subaru filter.

I use the number 13 amsoil filter, 10w30 amsoil oil, magnetic oil drain plug:) car is over stage 2 with 95,000 miles still runs smooth. O and i do oil changes every 5000 to 7500 miles.

Yeah, I noticed the Eauo12 filters were tiny compared to the subie oem filters, I'll have to check out the 13.

Damn, just remembered that I have to have the Subie dealer do up my oil changes for awhile. Last time, SOA could have almost not honored the warranty because I had no record of any maintenance being done. Even though I did my own oil changes 3 times within the first 7800 miles before the motor went, knock, knock.

Figured I would just wait till like 20k on the second motor till I will switch over to 5or10W30 with the EaO13 filter, although my engine sounds horrible everytime I drive it, but the dealer can find nothing wrong with it.

Also, was reading somewhere about Subie filter not having the Anti-Drainback. Is the AMSoil EaO12 and 13 missing that too? When you look at the inside of the Ams filters, it looks like just a paper media and thats it.
