Go with Penzoil Platinum. I remember him suggesting it as a good safe oil and a good bang for your buck too.

Arctic White- 1999 Trans Am A4
I really like the fact that sponsers help fellow members out with their questions. Originally Posted by CompSyn

So it's always good to ask these type of questions, and especially ppl like Sarge and Compsyn to come in give out a lot of information.
Thanks guys.

Red- 98 Trans Am
Ive gotta go with Royal Purple. Ive have it ran through my car twice and the diference is there. Maybe not as aparent as the advertising says however, when i had Full synthetic Pensoil in first, ran for 3000 miles then changed to Royal then Pens and then Royal again each after 3000 miles. The difference was there. The engine just RAN smoother. You could hear and feel it. For $7 a quart x 6 quarts (cause they dont sell half quarts lol), its not that bad and you get what you pay for. Even draining you can see that the Royal doesnt get as dirty after 3000 as the regular oil. BUT!!! even then, regularly changed oil will always save you, Even if your brave enough to put Walmart special Syntech Oil..... im not.
I go with 5W30 Royal Purple.Turbo build 99.9% complete
