If you break down all the test results based on the all the IAV testing (google the IAV if you must) the castrol edge oil is like 0.0000002% better than Mobil 1 when held to the IAV test standards. and Mobil is quick to point out that durring the 100hour IAV test the oil is never allowed to cool. they don't test for thermal breakdown which is what Mobil1 is supposed to be so great at.

Google "" Sequence IVA wear test ""

Castrol edge does in fact perform better in the Sequence IVA wear test, but that is just a lab test, not the real world.
