I've never heard of ENEOUS OIL, but their website says they're "#1 in Japan".
That should bring some OT comments...

I always laugh whenever an oil maker claims to give you more horsepower from their oil, because even if you originally were running 20w50 and switched to a 5w20 oil you still wouldn't see more than about a 3 or 4hp difference in power. So to claim that an oil of the same viscosity will give you 8 more horsepower is simple nonsense.

Means nothing at all, I've had a few cars dynoed and saw 10rwhp difference from one run to the next with no changes whatsoever, so I still don't believe it. Technically speaking it's simply not possible to pick up any horsepower just from one brand of oil to the next if the viscosity is exactly the same.

If you are that desperate for horsepower, do it

Do they make an Extra-Eneous oil that gives you 20HP?
Inquiring minds want to know!!
