not all are running turbos. most on here are N/A, but like the added benefits of using synthetic anyway. my next oil change is due shortly after I get back up to my hometown. I, like many others, will be switching to synthetic.

ORIGINAL: Impreza WRX

Gen 6 (96-Y2K) uses 10w30, Gen 5 (92-95) uses 5w30.
I have a 99 si it uses 5w-30
I guess cause its a B-series
