I've got a friend that runs a shop and he's noticed the difference (most significant during cold starts).

Sure oil analysis says how good your engine is being worn in (or rather the minimization of wear), but it doesn't say how smooth the engine is when actively running.

I also found a slight improvement in my MPG in highway cruising due to less internal resistance.
i run castrol synthetic in my cars for no real reason..

but what i'm seeing is that eneos has 20% additive to each quart per the MSDS. so how is it different to run 1 quart of lucas with 4.5 quarts of synthetic oil over 5.5 quarts of 80%/20% 'pre-mixed' oil?
