You paid for 300 horses...

Interesting to see a Quaker State ad over the weekend featuring the WRX STi. The product is pure marketing baloney (Quaker State "Q," a low-friction oil -- in three different formulations, no less -- to magically free-up horsepower), but it seems good exposure for Subaru, nonetheless.

The interesting thing is this: That oil isn't even fully synthetic!!! In the owners manual for the 04 and 05 STi, it states that Synthetic oil is reccomended for best performance.... Interesting huh

How does that mean that they don't use synthetic?

That's like saying premium gas is recommended for best performance.
