BrianEarlSpilner Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Even if you can't force the mindless masses to read certain info I appreciate folks like BmB putting this info up. I've been "researching" this forum for a couple years before starting my build and everyone's contributions have helped greatly in my decision making process. I would also like to add this site has a lot of opinion mixed with fact and it can be hard to sift through it all when you're new. Don't hate people for asking questions. Whether its a book, internet, trusted mechanic friend, all research begins with a question. And at the same time you can only answer the same stupid questions so many times... What intake gives the most hp? Do I reall need a tune with a new turbo? I love Subarus and I love this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John J Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 I too think it should be stickied. While you can see every noob that posts a stupid or repeated question, you don't see all the people who read a post and learned from it and didn't reply. Even though I've been reading this site for a few years and on my second LGT, I found the first suggestion in the OP very helpful. I always thought the search function here gave too many non-pertinent results but never thought of using google's site search function. I recently replaced my turbo, PCV, and installed a Perrin inlet and would like to thank all for their useful posts. BTW the PCV install is cake with the turbo out.

StormLGT Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 I've used Mobil1 oil since I got my car and it's been perfect...currently at 85k miles. That sentence about oil was a bit biased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait, nevermind. The post says 5w-30 to stay away from. I agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sentence about oil was a bit biased. Wait, nevermind. The post says 5w-30 to stay away from. I agree No bias here. That said, run whatever oil you'd like. I'm speaking from experience--both my own and many others. Without a doubt, mobil1 5w-30 is anecdotally shitty for these cars (i know, "without a doubt" and anecdotal evidence don't really go together--don't care). Also without a doubt, rotella t6 5w-40 is great for these cars and readily available "Bullet-proof" your OEM TMIC! <<Buy your kit here>> Not currently in stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
