they all suck! actually the TG fram is pretty good, but at $11 you would be wayy better off with a M1 filter.

Red Line Baby!!
Provides the quickest starts and fastest oil pressure rise. Will reduce turbo lag and provides more power and best economy in an engine in good condition

ok, so is it better to run 5w20 or 5w30? and now that were in the summer months, is it as important to run 5 weight or can you run 10? or doesnt it matter?

I've already explained this in this thread. Scroll up and read it. You can run 5w-20 or 5w-30. The choice is yours but personally, I'de rather run 5w-30 for that better protection when the motor gets hot and during the summer months especially.
