No comparison at all, IMO. PUis made from good Group III base stocks and is an Energy Conserving oil. 300V is made from Group V ester base stocks with higher levels of Anti Wear additives, thicker viscosity at operating temp. and a higher High Temp High Shear.

You may feel a difference based only on 300V's esters. At least I did when I used Red Line.

Post the PU UOA! I haven't seen any yet on a turbo subie.
