Best oil for my Sti?

10w 40 i wouldnt recommend it for turbocharged cars.40 is the highest temperature they would bear until they start getting thinner.50 or 60 is the best..Cause as we know turbocharged cars develop higher temperatures than atmospheric engines..

Kostas,
So why is this what Subaru recommend then?
Subaru recommend 5w-30 for extreme cold conditions but not for "sustained high speed driving" and 10w-30/10w-40 for "normal" driving and 10w-50, 20w-40 and 20w-50 for "severe driving conditions".
I've spoken to Demon Tweeks who put me in touch with their Petrol-Chemist and he recommends Redline over Motul over everything thing else (he says they use the best base stocks and then he lost me a little bit... )
I've gone for Redline Fully Synthetic 10w-40 (and Pat recommeded Redline too so it can't be *that* bad ). Trouble is, it's pretty expensive (but I'd rather that than risk damaging my engine) so does anybody know where else you can get Redline (and possibly Motul 300V Comp) from at a good price?
