    I'll really have to talk with him about it then. I know allot of stuff buy Like I said before I dont know much about the subject of oil so I'm a big time noob in that department

    Looks like I'll be making a tranny fluid thread as well, lol. Amsoil syncromesh is ok but not that good for our transmissions. You should use Redline MTL for OEM gears in our transmissions.

    I would definitely have a chat with him, but it seems like he's not the one to go to if he told you to run Xw20, no disrespect. Stick with the guys that know their cars, we won't steer you wrong.
