Default Millers Oil ? Which grade ?

Hi everyone, this is my first post and the subject has probably already being covered, ive used to search and been nothing but confused !

I have bought some Millers XFS 5/40W Oil to do the oil change.

Is this oil perfect for my car, or should I exchange it for a different grade ?

Oh, the car is a '97 Legacy GT-B Twin Turbo with a manual box.

Cheers guys,

I've used the XFS 5/40 in my 03 STi and it's perfectly fine. Just remember it's not the all singing, all dancing ester based formula, for that you need the CFS range. I currently use CFS 10/40 with a possible change to CFS 5/40 for the "winter" half of the year. Unless you take the car on track, I don't believe you need a 60 weight oil for road use.
