personally, I'd use Rotella T6. It's a full synthetic oil marketed for diesel engines or "heavy duty" but it's a low saps 5W-40 oil that is perfectly fine to use in a gasoline application.
I use Synthoil 5w-40 seems great. Lower consumption early on till about 4K miles then on par with consumption others report.
I have always used 15w-50 on VR6's and 5w-40 on 1.8t's and 10w-60 on the track cars. Try out Rotella T6 5w-40. I ran Motul 5w-40 on my 911 and it made tons of extra noise, went to Rotella T6 under advice from my tuner and it quieted it right down. Been using it on my Saab as well which has a noisy chain setup as well and it worked wonders.
Liqui-Moly produce good oil in general, in my country all subaru enthusiasts use it for engines also!
I've been hearing lots of good stuff about Rotella t-6 i just changed mine to that the first time this month for the winter
So this morning I went n got some Rotella T6 5w40. filled her up and drove it pretty far. The light didnt come back on. I guess all I needed was an oil change? Sounds a lot quieter in idle too, no ticking besides the fuel injectors.
I go back and forth between white jug rotella in the summer and t6 in the winter. It's cheap, and I've never had any issues.
My local AZ sells Mobil 1 10W-40 Racing 4T, Castrol 10W-40 and 20W-50 synthetic bike oil, and the best bargain of the bunch is Shell Rotella 5W-40 Synthetic T6, which is [rated JASO-MA and MA2](http://s7d9.scene7.com/is/content/GenuinePartsCompany/1843126pdf) (although claimed to meet the spec by Shell, it's apparently not officially certified by JASO).
Shell Rotella T. The normal type NOT the synthetic. It's a diesel oil you can use with gasoline engines. It's got all the good stuff you need.
Rotella T6 is very popular for turbo Subarus. It's 5w-40, which has some advantages. It's cheap at $20/gallon.
