I'll prolly just stick with factory/oem oil. But..might go with Motul 8100 (pretty inexpensive for a 1 gallon bottle online)..but idk if 8100 is that much better than factory and/or off the shelf oils from everyday car shops (ie: mobil1, royal purple, castrol, penzoil, etc., etc).
Anyone know who good 8100 is, and ranks among the others?
Or should i just go with Eneos since everyone mentions it's good stuff?

Any of the oils listed are good choices for up to 7,500 mile intervals, depending on your specific driving conditions. The Toyota oil is made by ExxonMobil and the Subaru oil is made by Idemitsu.
I actually run Motul in my Forester XT, but I'm thinking of going with Pennzoil next. The Pennzoil Gas To Liquid base stocks are amazing. See viscositosis.rex's comments.
