I wanted to run Amsoil but could not find a local dealer, so i stuck to what ive been using for last couple years and just changed with mobile1. I only use OEM filters.

Mods are basic boltons

Amsoil 10-30 and a Wix filter. I do all my car work at my mom's house (someday I'll own a house in Seattle....maybe) so I hit up either NAPA or Puyallup National for my supplies on the way to her place.

I dont work for ER, but I do know them all very well. They would recommend a lot of the same oil. Valvoline VR-1 is great oil too. There are some other oils out there that are also good too.

NAPA (on Meridian in the old downtown) or Puyallup National for the Amsoil too. NAPA and PN both carry the oil and sometimes NAPA carries the correct Amsoil filter for the Evo (but usually they don't so I just grab a Wix instead).
