Default ANOTHER tC oil change question

I did a search but cannot find the answers I want.

1. How much oil do I need for tC?
2. What brand and what type of synthetic oil do you recommend for my tC if I live in Colorado.
3. What brand of oil filter do you recommend?

I am about to do my 1st synthetic oil change.

1. 3.8 quarts without a new filter, 4.0 quarts with a new filter - I always add 3 and most of the 4th and then check the level, you don't want to overfill.

2. SAE 5W30 AMSOIL Fully Synthetic (About $5.50 a quart), or Mobil1, but I prefer AMSOIL.

3. AMSOIL high flow filter or OEM filter
