excellent info- presently using castrol 5w-20 SN plus " turbo" will switch to same castrol but 5w-30 soon. saw some 0-16 quarts in walmart yesterday - i was scratching my head " what's that for?" shook it - felt like water .

Was actually reading up on the 0-16 and was impressed to find out that the commuter cars it was going into were getting something like 1.5% better efficiency over 0-20 oil. Crazy how tech is being pushed farther and farther for efficiency.
