How magnanimous of you.

Next thing you know you'll be helping old ladies across the street.

I predict lots of moly, and no evidence found of the POE percentage in the brew.
Wish this stuff was certified to dexos1 or something. Instead they take the Amsoil approach and claim it'll work without actual certs.

For that kind of coin, I'd rather go with Ravenol who does get real certifications in a PAO+POE+tungsten+moly formula.
Like Amsoil, its probably good stuff though. Redline 0w20 has a -76 degrees F pourpoint, and Ravenol DFE 0w20 beats that at -81 degrees F!! That means great basestocks, no waxy crystals in there.
 
Specs are impressive indeed. Although price is likely horrendous. Official distributor in US doesn't share the prices on the website. Have you been able to locate another distributor?

I actually went with $2.50/quart Pennzoil Platinum in a 1-year stash, so I'm out of the market for now. The Shell Pennzoil rebates made it super cheap. After that, I may just use Valv MaxLife 0w20 with titanium for one car due to its high mileage. I'd use Ravenol if I had an expensive new car, or didn't cheap-out like I usually do. I may use Ravenol and put in some small amount of seal conditioner as a way to have the "good expensive stuff" and still treat the high mileage vehicle, haven't decided yet.
By that time, distributors will be there with the Ravenol 0w20.
 
Same here. Got me PP for at least a year for the pilot and another two OCI of Amsoil for my Civic. I was just curious to know the pricing

There is NO other US/NA distributor, and Ravenol does not even allow it's Euro/rest of world distributors to sell online directly to here from overseas, in order to maintain that exclusivity.

I don't care HOW MUCH Blauparts is going to charge for the Ravenol D1G2 spec DXG 5W-30, I am buying a bunch of it once it is available from them in ~ 2 to 3 months time.

HA! NOT unless he handed them however many thousands of bucks a spectroscopical/chromatographical analysis, or whichever one of the myriad analyses tells us the base stock makeup of an oil, costs (IF Blackstone is even capable of doing this for ANY price?)

No, If you send your oil sample in to Polaris Labs you will see a virgin POE has more "oxidation" level right from the start. at a 90-110. Here is a virgin sample of Amsoil new SS , notice the 48 oxidation. RLI here is at 84 oxidation. Some more Redline and RLI with higher #s. I would assume different variations of POE would have different values, so it is not saying there is 50%POE in Redline vs Amsoil, but it also could mean that.

Check out the oxidation on these, POE through oxidation #s. Works the same on my POE rotary screw air comp oil (110 140) vs PAO that has 35 to 50
