Yep but it's not just emissions.. Cars being leased is another huge factor in this. Leased cars must be able to go for a long time without service, because the person leading the car knows they won't be keeping it. Oils had to be re formulated for longer service lives and that meant a focus on keeping the engine cleaner. Why? Because engines were coming back after 2 year leases so sludges up that they had to be replaced.
The JG products are very easy to find, you can buy the oils I developed on Amazon. Hope that you never see a JG product on the shelf of your local parts store, because if that happens it will have been compromised just like everything else. Motul isn't bad, except for their Xclean product. Honestly I haven't ran any 300V or 8100 tests with Aircooled engines, but we have with water cooled Porsches.
