Engine oil PENNZOIL or FUCHS
The data I've seen round the web, including BITOG forums says that Pennzoil Platinum and Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5W-30 is as good or better than the waaay overpriced Motul stuff.
Pros: good or better
Cons: waaay overpriced
Vehicle:
Subaru
Motul xclean, amsoil signature series, valvoline max life, and penzoil ultra platinum are the favorites.

Ive only bought at walmart. $21.97. My turbo calls for an ingredient thats in the pennz synthetic
I also found out the filter (Mobil 1 extended performance) was about $6 cheaper there too
Pros: required ingredient, cheaper price
Motul or Penzoil.

The project farm video convinced me to use Pennzoil Ultra Platinum. It’s about 98% of the performance of Amsoil for much less money.

From what I've read online, Pennzoil Platinum 5w30 is a solid option that you can find at most retailers.
Pros: solid option
Vehicle:
Subaru
Even though Amsoil produced the lowest wear numbers I'm using ultra platinum since I find that is what my car runs best on, engine is quieter than with amsoil or Mobil and velvety smooth.
Pros: engine quieter, velvety smooth
In our 2003 1.8T Passat, we use; Pennzoil Platinum Full Synthetic High Mileage 5w-30. Changed every 4000 miles. Because we made the change early, we have not had and engine oil sludge problem. The Passat now has 205k miles.
Pros: no engine oil sludge, long engine life
