PP. SynPower will go in the wife's vehicle.
Valvoline Synpower or Pennzoil Platinuim?

I would go with either one -- whichever is the better deal. PP has shown to be a very good oil and seems to have gathered a good following here. But this UOA of SynPower (7000 miles TBN 2.85) looked good too. While Valvoline synthetics don't get as much noise around here, they look to be a very good (Group III/PAO) synthetic based on a few UOA's I looked at.

PP would be my first choice, but I would try both for two OCIs each.
What you like and what your vehicle prefers may not be the same oil brand.

Where is valvoline on sale for .99?
No brainer, PP. PP actually meets all the independently-validated specs it claims to meet, unlike Valv who intentionally misleads their customers about its capabilities.
Though it will be interesting to see how the recently reported PP pds/formulation tweak results in any changnes. Many have had experience with the PP named product, but not with the new formulation.

PP meets GM4718m. Valvoline does not.
I like Pennzoil Platinum but I wouldn't hesitate to use Synpower either. Both top notch oils.

What new formulation are you talking about? I have 06' and 07' batches stashed.
