I just got through using the stuff. Even paid the full retail price!

Still not quite "sold" on the SynPower.

Awaiting bogusjack's & Bill in Utah's SynPower trial.

I don't consider it a superb oil but for the money I like it a lot better than Mobil or Pennzoil. I think if I had to pick something besides this to try I might go with Castrol Syntec or Amsoil. It'll be a long time for that though considering I have 60,000 miles worth of oil in my closet

Yeah, in this case I would credit the engine more than the oil. The Subie 2.5L Flat4 has given pretty good UOAs here using a number of different oils.

Still, if the oil's a bargain and you are getting results like this, you have nothing to complain about.
