Hello,

Quiet excited to be part of boxer_engine family after selling my Honda recently. Currently my Subie (GTB 6Spd) is leaving Japan shortly and I want to know some of recommended oils? The odo is 110xxxkm and alot of people told me 10w40?

Please help~

Has it had the cambelt done? Mine was imported at 115k km and hadn't been done which is pretty typical for imports.

Put 5w30 castrol edge in mine, hadn't heard about w40 being an issue. Is that the avcs itself that doesn't like it or is there just more of a pressure drop across the banjo filters?

Like anything w40 will work its more just they will be slower to respond you might not even notice it but subaru recommend 5w30 as well so fairly safe to bet on that. The 5w gets oil to and through solenoids/gears quicker when cold.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
