I killed my turbo on AMSOil. I was running 5W30 and somehow I coked the turbo. Granted, this was before I bought a turbo timer, but I was pretty meticulous about making sure I ran the car for a few minutes after hard driving.

Their gear lube (75W90) was WAY too slick to make the synchros catch, so grinding became a pretty serious issue after awhile.

No longer an AMSOil fan.

You know what's funny, is I have heard a few people say Amsoil is the best but can never explain why. Usually these people are selling it, or just paid a bunch to someone who convinced them that "it's just better."

Always been a Mobil1 (street car) and Redline (race car) fan myself... Castrol for the beaters...
