Welcome to the forum! You'll have to post your own pictures, as the person who sold the car to you has deleted the craigslist ad!
I fully agree with you on the use of synthetics, and highly recommend using Amsoil products. Their marketing strategy sucks, but the product is top-of-the-line!
Also, in addition to the FMIC, get a RocketChip, and a MBC! You'll be able to boost much more than the 10 your aiming for!
Either way, any running XR2 that can be bought for $900 is a steal! Good Job!
