I have a Snap on Swivel Impact Socket IPLM17B & the pin collar turns freely is that suppose 2 turn?

Actually "rwings82", you are misinformed! I have done hours of research on synthetic oils and there are top contenders and there is garbage out there! Amsoil, which is the number one oil used by most race car owners, is considered the best available however, not easily attainable at your local auto parts center! Second on the list would be Mobil1 so long as you use Mobil 1 filters and chabge the oil every 3000 miles and not the 7500 miles suggested by Mobil!
All of the rest were seemingly somewhat equal with no-name brands at the bottom of the list!
Basically, as anything else we purchase, you get what you pay for! Or should I rephrase that in today's market, we SHOULD get what we pay for!
The most important issue here is good preventative maintanence which boils down to servicing your vehicle on a daily basis in my opinion! Lot's of folks just climb in, turn the key, and out on the highway---same routine each and every day! Guaranteed recipe for short term performance and expensive repair bills!
I've been a mechanic for over 35 years and you won't believe what I've seen or what I've been told!

How do i get extra horsepower out of my car?

Your car should have a log book and instruction manual. In there it will tell you what type of oil to use and how frequently to change it. Failing that, just contact the service department of your local Ford dealer and ask them.

well really there is no best synthetic oil. The most popular one is probably Mobil 1 or Pennzoil Platinum. Your car most likely requirs 5w20 so make sure you use that if needed

How will an impact driver help me remove a stubborn allen bolt?

The answer is Redline ( hands down ) But if money is an issue, the Mobil 1 ( as long as it stays an Olefin base ) or Amsoil, alos an Olefin base. Steer clear of group three phoney synthetics. They waste your money and maybe your engine.
