[QUOTE="jsip, post: 14840552, member: 162426"] I use Amsoil SS 5w30 in my Track Pack '14 since its first oil change with zero issues. She's a fair weather only car that sees maybe 3.5k per year with minimal beating on it. I pretty much never exceed 5k unless I absolutely need to or unless someone wants to play, which is rare. CAI, Catback, tune, MGW, suspension are pretty much it for now. I make a few test pulls to see any differences with each modification but that's about it. Once I understand how the changes have affected its drivability, shifting, etc - no need for me to keep beating on her. I've been in cars and bikes for 20 years so I don't feel the need to constantly beat on a car if I already know what it will do. If I track the car I will be switching to 5w50 for the day but all else I am happy with how the oil performs for spirited driving and the occasional WOT. For the record, my mower and snow blower also use Amsoil SS ;) EDIT: Beast, I noticed you mentioned 5w50 for the Track Packs - I'm not sure I need that much if I'm not tracking the car - would you recommend the switch or keep with 5w30?
