Ryan, he said he would do it for $45, after hours. It would probably run a little more if I ran it through the shop.

brembos would be the smarter option to me

I think you need 5 quarts for the engine with filter change. Buy 6 just in case. I use Motul 90pa 75w90 for my diff. Best in my opinion. I used Royal purple 75w90 last time and I much rather the motul. It's smoother. I order from www.thenismoshop.com.

Even with the turbo? I know either would be better then what I have right now, but I don't want to upgrade again.

That's good to know! I'll be sure to keep with the same oil then . . .

One 2L/2quart bottle. You will only use about 1.75-1.8 quarts.

What does a turbo have to do with it? Brembos have plenty of stopping power.

VS. a stock motor. Not saying they don't, I just want to make sure that once I purchase a system, it's the last one, and I want to make sure that it can handle the hp.

I wish i had just stayed with my Brembos. With the right rotor / line / fluid, they can handle anything you can throw at them on the track at weekend warrior level.
