Black Wow -> http://www.autogeek.net/black-wow-trim-restorer.html

Fade 2 Black isn't as good IMO

I can give you a small sample bottle if you want to try the stuff out first

I use Mobil1 synthetic. I always thought boosted guys always get higher quality stuff. I know my friend with a subie (even though it's tuned to rally) is also using Penzoil and sometimes Royal Purple.

I use whatever is on sale. I have about 20 qts. of Pennzoil Platinum and 15 qts of Pennzoil regular right now. If Mobil 1 goes on sale, I'll buy that. If Castrol goes on sale, I'll buy that.

I mainly try to use synthetic though. But the $0.99 a qt. Pennzoil regular was too good to pass up.

Walmart is probably the best place to buy from though. A 5 qt jug of Mobil 1 is like $22 and a 5 qt jug Pennzoil Plat. can be had for about $15 right now if you can find the bottles with the $5 coupon on them.

Filters? Mobil 1, Wix, Napa, Purolator, and K&N are all good. I usually stay away from Fram because they are the suck, but the XG model is not bad.

A lot of times, places like Pepboys, Autozone, Kragen/O'reilly will have Mobil 1 specials... 5 qts and a Mobil 1 filter for $30. That's not a bad deal since the filter itself sells for like $10.

Yeah it was the same $14 but if you look at it compared to other filters it's expensive for like no reason. The other ones look all high quality and stuff and this is just some hardened plastic lol.
