Castrol Edge, What do you guys think/Has anyone used it? Options

The ads prompt that Castrol Edge provides 8 times better protection wear than Mobil 1. I use Mobil 1 lol. So I was wondering if Castrol Edge is legit, they sure have charts and scientific proof that it's better than Mobil 1, I wanna know what the 6gc members think though. Thanks guys!

So what you guys are saying is that Edge, while good, is a superfluous expense when Mobil 1 works just fine?

use royal purple if you're already dropping 8-10 a quart...

not to rain on that idea but i did some testing once mobil 1 vs castrol syntec vs royal purple. mobil 1 and the syntec were almost exactly the same (temperature and hp/torque #) but the royal purple had the same hp/torque numbers but the engine was closer to knocking in the higher rpm's (idk why in particular but all measurements were being monitored by volt/amp meters) AND it ran like 5-10 degrees Hotter. all tests were done w/a control and over evenly spaced timing to allow for cool down. (granted it was also done ~2years ago so they might have changed their formula?
-just my $.02

cant argue with tested results
