Neither. They'll both shear quickly.

If I weren't using my car for track and only on the street, I would be using Shell Rotella T6. There are plenty of good oils out there, but those two are probably the quickest shearing synthetics you can buy.

You might as well start a thread asking if you should date a blonde or brunette or ginger.

um, check the little book in the "glove" compartment. its called an owner's manual and will tell you to use 10w30.

i happen to use amsoil 10w30 signature synthetic exclusively with pcx-004 oil filter.

sorry for the sarcasm, but this forum is full of oil discussions.

It will also tell you what needs to be done at 30K.

+1 on this. be realistic on what you will be doing with the car that will help you narrow it down. ive been using Pennzoil Ultra, and im about to switch to amsoil 5w30. my car is an autocross car and i will be doing short OCI's. not much information has been given with the Amsoil OE line 5w30. most use XL. ill be changing my oil every 4-5k miles. i use amsoil fluids for the trans and diff as well, so i figure i might as well use amsoil everything since the price is competitive.

I use Redline products.

I'm a big fan of Pennzoil Ultra 5w30. It was a little while ago, but Walmart was clearancing out the 5 quart jugs of Ultra for $20 a pop, you may still be able to find some of it in your area if you're lucky.
