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?

All the average 0W-20 oils run 45 cSt at 40°C, eneos street racing 0w-20 runs at 28.6* (not 35) cSt at 40°C. The viscosity index is significantly better providing a more stable and consistent oil flow to your engine. It also provides better lubrication based on the amount of vibration felt while driving and improved mpg. I call horse-crap on the HP "unlocked" by their marketing though.
lucas oil stabilizer makes the oil run thicker and worse.
if you've taken delved into chemistry before, you'd understand that its generally harder to increase viscosity index by adding* other chemicals into the a solution. That's what impresses me the most about this product ~
