How do you like the PS4S?
How do they compare with the OE GY F1SC3 ?

I used to have the 888 on another car (Front Wheel Drive) and they were just too noisy for daily street driving

According to my experience, 10 quarts (including filter change) should indicate top /max. point on the checkered marks on the dipstick.
Middle area would mean less than 10 Quarts filled.
