I checked Google and these are both oils. Were you suggesting I get both or just choose between the two? I'm confused.

No problem, Mitasu 5w30 gold has that rating, it's made in Japan. I saw it for sale in Blade, Tru Value and Lazada for 530 pesos. I'm planning to use this with my next oil change. Look for a dealer, might be cheaper.

Yeah. Will there be any advantage at all if I go with the casa-provided oil (Motul) over cheaper variants with both certifications?

no advantage, even semi synthetics can pass api-sn and ilsac-gf5 requirements.

if you go to motul lube advisors website. you'll be recommended of a 0w20 api-sn ilsac-gf5 for the north american newer subaru "2.0" BRZ and naturally aspirated 2.0 Foresters...

here is the recommendation from motul

if you check the recommended oil for the turbo XT. this requires a more stout oil..

Thanks! Do you think the Mag1 Full Synthetic CVTF is one good choice then?

If any of you guys need a cheap FS oil for your Subies, just drop by FRDMAZ and get their Motorcraft 5w30 FS oil (API SN, Resource Conserving). I get it for 400 per liter. I use that same oil for my Fiesta Ecoboost and FXT, as it satisfies the requirement of both Ford and Subaru turbo engines. The FA20 requires a 5w30 FS oil, or 5w40 in case no 5w30 is available. I am not sure about the FB20 but the FA20 needs 5L for its oil change.

You should check your manual, car manufacturers now have their own specified blend for their trannies.
