Both are a great choice... but if you want to stay under the warranty rules, it is a total waste of money.

Amsoil oil is for extended drain interval. For example, the SSO 0w30 oil is for 35.000 miles Oil Change Interval (half in severe use) or one year, as to stay under warranty you wouldn't be able to keep the oil in the car for more than 7.500 miles or 6 months.

So depending of your use, you will use between one third to half of the potential of the oil.

That the same for the filter as it is good for a whole year but you will not be allowed to leave it on the car more than 6 month if you want to stay under warranty.

If you don't care about the warranty, go for it and enjoy, seems to be a great combination giving great results.
