<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">conventional oil is cheap

u can get it for a dollar a bottle. s2k's need about 5..5 dollar mod

now, synthetics..there are deals..

for example, at pepboys if you buy their calender for 1 dollar, there is a coupon inside that has buy 3 get 3 free bottles of mobil 1 oil. so it will cost u about 2.50-2.75 a bottle for synthetic..</TD></TR></TABLE>

You tell me where to get REDLINE oil that cheap and i'll buy a few cases...read my post again please, REDLINE OIL, not conventional or even cheap synthetic...

Stock oil was in there to about 5,000 miles...so i think that was a good "break in" period for it. My boy works at Advanced AP...gets me a good deal on a case, if you werent jetting to europe, i could probobly get it for you too since you offer a nice piece of *** when i need one.

Dunno if it was the best route or not, but I added a Comptech CF Intake, Invidia Cat-Back, and Comptech/4.77 FD setup first thing.

For the FD. Best bang for the buck for sure! Better to replace it right off the bat instead of waiting until you grenade your OEM unit.

Are you sure it wasn't your "Maintenance Required" light?
