RE: I hope 6 quarts was right
Has anybody with the STS turbo changed their oil and noticed how much extra it takes to make it full? There are oil lines running front to back, back to front. I would assume another quart will be sufficent but trial and error will give the final answer. I'm sure the installer will know. But if anyone else does I would appritiate it.

I'll give you a lesson.
put [ q u o t e ] before the quote and [/ q u ot e ] after it. Don't use spaces. I just used spaces so it wouldn't actually do it
doesn't this look much better you n00b?
