i only use 98, car hates 91. will run ok on 95. and the only 98 i try to use is BP ultimate. failing that mobil 8000. try to avoid all others as i find these two better than others.

Hey mean ride bro. How do you manage to run all that gear off ya factory headunit? as I am wantin to just add some amped 6 by 9s into my back tray but have been told I need to change the headunit to do this. I take it that you can which would suit me as I would rather keep my standard one so my steerin wheel controls still function.
