    Sig Over Glock?...... Not So Fast.

    Kuato, you might want to re-calculate. It amounts to $566.67/each.

    Reformulated QSUD 5w30

    Regarding QSUD 5w30 VOA, I've always refer to the PQIA March 2013 test results. However, I noticed that PQIA had tested a newer QSUD (date purchased 12/28/2015). Compared with PQIA's last test of QSUD (date purchased 1/25/2013) the main differences seems to more moly in the newer formulation...

    Honda sets November sales record

    I'm not that surprised. Honda still has a very big, loyal fan base. And I'm sure all the incentives helped retain some of those fans.

    2013 Civic

    I think it's very good for a "refresh". IMO Honda did a good job in addressing the criticisms of the 2012 civic. For those wanting more, remember this was not meant to be a completely new vehicle. It's amazing they implemented these changes in a short time frame. As a previous honda/acura fan...

    ACN91 (Arizona, California, & Nevada 91 Octane)

    FWIW, this ECU tuner manufacturer is a well respected company with proven products. For a company to develop separate, slightly less agressive ACN91 tunes/maps (as compared to the 91 octane tunes, but of course more aggressive than factory tune), there must be a practical difference between...

    ACN91 (Arizona, California, & Nevada 91 Octane)

    In my research for an ECU tuner for my car, I was reading up on the available off the shelf (OTS) tunes/maps. Interestingly, this is the first time I came across ACN91 (Arizona, California, & Nevada 91 Octane). Apparently, ACN91 is a lower quality fuel (for power) and thus the tunes/maps for...

    Best 75W-95 manual transmission gear oil for BRZ

    I'm curious, what does the owner's manual recommend? Does it just state 75W-90, GL-4? Or does it call for a specific Subaru fluid?

    Turbo engines

    Blusubie, I have read many people running more robust oils such as Rotella T6. But it also seems that many who use it are just following the pack (and out of warranty). Not that that is a bad thing. However, it doesn't prove that an energy conserving 5w30 oil shearing down to a 20 weight...

    Turbo engines

    I plan on keeping the car as long as it's running. And I plan to do my due diligence in keeping up with the maintenance by doing the routine maintenance items myself.

    Turbo engines

    That is my feeling as well. And yes, I plan on using a quality oil. Per Subaru, it requires synthetic 5w30 (changed at 3750 miles for severe, 7500 miles normal). More specifically, I plan on running QSUD 5w30 mainly due to the GM 4718M corvette spec and the Honda HTO-06 spec for turbocharged...

    Turbo engines

    Hi everybody. I've recently purchased my first turbocharged car (2012 Subaru WRX). Being my first turbo, I wanted to learn about any special care for turbocharged engines by reading any and all information I could find (subaru manuals, tsb's, wrx and subaru specific forums and of course bitog)...

    Honorary BITOGr

    On the topic: It's amazing what (excess/abundance) money can do/buy. I'm very sure he has much more money than he knows what to do with. But, hey, to each his own. Off the topic: Who are we to criticize this one wealthy individual when we as a relatively rich nation(s): waste tons of food by...

    Hi everybody. I'm thinking of purchasing a Motive pressure brake bleeder (SKU#0101) and using it on my 02 Honda Accord V6 and 05 Honda CRV to flush the brake MC and lines. I currently have the hand pump that attaches to the bleeder screw and find 1)it takes too long, 2) gotta have a good seal...

    Thanks for the info. I'm just about out of my Regane stash and with all the positive feedback I'll continue to use it, even willing to pay full price!

    Various Gumout Products info/insight requested

    Hi everybody, I was wondering if you gurus can provide some info/insight on the various Gumout products listed below. Now, I currently use Regane (bought a bunch when the store had it priced incorrectly at $2.99) and feel it is a fine product (butt dyno as well as non-scientific gas mileage...

    NGK Platinum or Denso Platinum? (for 02 Accord V6)

    Both NGK and Denso are spec'd in the Honda Owners Manual. Just looking for some comments on which to choose...NGK or Denso or either. Thanks.

    Castrol GTX/Mobil Clean 5000

    Lone Ranger, The only conclusion that can be drawn is that Castrol GTX may not pump as well as Mobil Clean 5000 at lower temperatures since GM 6094M spec pertains to low temperature pumability. Not being spec'd for GM 6094M isn't an end-all for an oil. Dually, either oil will suffice for...
