Misread your post! I'm in a jeep in the Mojave right now so everything is bumpy on my little iPhone. Oil has a huge component on right seal, viscosity index, additives, base stocks. For example, esters cling to metal, which is why you see oils like Motul use ester based base oils. This greatly reduces wear and fuel dilution. Viscosity index is the oils ability to stay in grade as it heats up. Lots of technical factors that have big effects.
As proof my RC F went from 3.5% fuel dilution with Mobil 1, to 1% with BioSyn. That's huge if it did nothing else. I did extensive dyno testing in a climate controlled and the oils not only had a power difference, the high quality oils changed the way the power was produced. It was bizarre to say the least. The way the lines were so much smoother and steadier was interesting. Explains why Amsoil has its own dyno facility with top notch stuff.
