This "oil' is advertised as never having to change it.
It comes in only one viscosity, 5w-50.
Independant testing fresh out of the bottle has shown that it is either a x-30 or x-40. They do offer a "warranty", one so full of holes you could drive a semi through it. Their MSDS, which did not exsist pior to late march not only looks like a copy/paste job of a Mobil oil MSDS, but specifically disclaims all warranties of any kind and nature.
To qualify for there 'warranty' as listed on their website, using it on a new car, you *have* to change the oil. So much for the "never change the oil" claim.
A Google maps search of addresses they give lead to nothing. The claim is also made that they operate out of Mercury, Nevada. A closed to the public base camp in the Nevada Test Site. An email form the DOE states that no private business operates there.
They make several claims on the site. They claaim to pass AAA tests, FTP-75 Tests. When pressed for the documents, they do everything but produce them. They claim that the Oakland California PD uses this oil. To date, there has been no independant verifiable confirmation. Only their word. You will also see pics of adult film actresses draped over the hoods of cars that supposedly use this oil. They also claims NASA uses it. No confirmation other than their say so.
They are very resistent to any request for independant testing.instead of information when asked why, you get lectures on flat earth and Aristotle. When asked why the oil is not rated by API, or ACEA, or ILSAC, you get tirades about how companies such as Shell are not. When you point out that Shell is in fact API rated, then you get tirades about Japan.

First hand accounts of just how miro and company act when you dare to question them.
At $32/qt, you need more than to take their word
