Do you have anything in a 40 grade with a tbn of 13 or more, single digit noack volatility, and a 185 Viscosity index that meets MB 229.5 for around $5 a qt?

Yeah it seems like its a lower quality verson of the old Ultra with more marketing...
NOACK volatility loss went from 6% to 13%....not a good sign. The old GTL basestocks were better quality.

Closest to the vicosity index i can get is 165, all the other numbers are good...the way web site works you load a make,model and engine in an recommends an oil for your vehicle.

It varies from store to store my Walmart hardly has 1 qt bottles in I'd like to try it but not paying more than mobil one lol that's pretty much as expensive as I care to go for oil.
