Default Correct Oil?

Hi Everyone.....
Can someone tell me the correct oil for the best results for a Wrx 2003 prodrive.
Ive been told use either 10w40 semi......Or....10w60 Castrol Edge Fully.
Can someone advise what oil to use or something different...
Thanks
Gandy

Once run in I'd only use fully synthetic, high ester oil.

Not too thin, forget the 0- types, use 10-40 or so.

Dont go 10w-60, too thick when hot. Think high blood pressure. Depending on use 5w-40, 10w-40 or 10w-50 synthetic.

Cheers
