tried amsoil SSO today

I bought 5 quarts of amsoil SSo 0w 30 and did an oil change today
honestly i cant really tell the difference. i am one of those guys that cant feel changes even if it bit me in the A$$. But there is one thing i do feel and that is there is less engine noise. does less engine noise mean less friction in the engine?
but i heard so much good stuff about amsoil everywhere. now i have amsoil running in motor, tranny and diff's. i cant really tell the difference but i guess the car is runnning better with good fluids

Way to not be affected by the placebo! Naa your components probably thank you. Although the thin weight oil is too thin for me, I hear it works very well!

The only way to notice the effects of engine oils is to send samples to a laboratory such as http://www.blackstone-labs.com/.

The butt dyno of "it feels better" or "it is quieter" are invalid. It's new oil afterall...
