thicker oil will decrease blowby...theoretically increasing TQ#s

I think most Oil Companies claims that "increases HP, TQ, MPG" etc... is based on before/after an oil change, not comparison against similar oils.

tell you what.........

Gimme a fresh oil change of normal based Pennz/Q State (same oil btw :) ) and then let me drop in some fresh Exxon Superflo, I'll see 4-5 whp increase in power to the wheels.

Since the cheaper oils break down, they start out thicker, which rob power. Likely the QState Torque is semi-syn and doesn't breakdown as easy. THEREFORE more power/tq to the ground over fresh normal QState, they just don't wanna tell you that :)
