yeah thanks guys ive already used some info on here to make my next oil change decision. went up and bought 6 quarts of 0w-30 castrol syntec( german stuff). i changed the oil with conventional today because thats what its always had in it but i plan on changin to synthetic(GC) when i bring the car out in april. i think i should run some seafoam before i change. what do you guys think?

^ a deal is a deal it doesn't matter who paid less for theirs. You can't put price on what it feels like driving that thing home the first day and waking up to it the next morning.

Congrats man, and welcome to the club. As far as modding goes, just make a game plan before you start. I started off saying i'll be happy with intake and exhaust, then "just a cam", then "just a head upgrade", now i have a 408 and could have saved myself a lot of money if i'd known it was going to end up building a bigger motor.
... but hey, it's all in good fun right

Congrats on the new car. You got a really good deal! You should Seafoam the car before the oil change since you are going to have to change it out after you put it in. German Castrol is the best oil, IMO! Good luck with your future mods...
