read the whole paragraph... it says 5w30 but in a warmer climate, 10w30 is better suited. i use Valvoline MAX LIFE 10w30 or 10w40.... but i live in hot ass florida, so i can use the extra weight.

Mobile 1 Full Synthetic, yeah i knoe 6 bucks a quart sucks.

 

[orfus5]

alot of people need to research before they post.....


I use castrol syn synblend 7.5w30

 

[j_fukin_t]

Mobil 5W30. the regular 5000 stuff not the 7500l

i use the clean 5000 stuff from mobil, although if i do boost i'm gonna change to amsoil (for the turbo's sake)

5w 30 is whats recommended for ur car period...no ifs ands or buts...
its good for all weather...10w30 u CAN use IF the temp in ur area never goes below 20..so they say...
i would stick to what ur car manufacturer suggests

bingo. there is a reason why honda recommends 5w 30. mainly because the main bearing clearence is a relativley tight. Honda spec ranges from 0.0011" - 0.0021".

 

[Nology]

amsoil 5w30 since the car had 15 or 20k on it.
