just looking on variety that they offer it can't be better than synthetic as they claim. because... they don't offer anything different than conventional weight variety.. they simply can't offer anything multi-visc. like 5w50 or 5w40. &lt;-- only found in synthetic that can work with such extended range.

Forget that stuff buddy. Use Castrol Edge Sport 10W 60, seriously good oil, will not burn a drop.

There actually doesn't appear to be much information on BITOG, at least not that I could find with an initial search. I'm going to attempt to do some further searching, because I'm interested in learning more about this.

The range of viscosities that the company offers doesn't indicate the oil's quality or overall performance, so I don't think you should write it off because of that.

When selecting an oil, you generally want to choose the lowest appropriate viscosity "spread" that you can, regardless of whether you're running a conventional or a synthetic.
