Blackstone Labs Oil Report

I just had my oil tested and here are the results just in case anyone was curious.
Just some notes:
13 TL 6MT
I'm using Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 10W30 and a Royal Purple 10-2808 oil filter (This is the recommended application for S2000, I use it because it fits and it's a bigger filter)
I added 3 quarts between changes, I had about 10% left on my oil however because it was running low I decided to change it early since it would have been a waste to add oil only to change it a few hundred miles later.

Have you done the lab test for other oil brand? which one you have ever used at around 8k miles has the best result?
I have bought the motul eco lite 8100 0w20(100% synthetic instead full synthetic) for my 12 TL FWD(63000miles) and plan to change the oil in two weeks. currently I am running with mobil 1 ultimate (1 year protection) but I changed it at 8k last time. no confidence when going over 8k miles

I just ordered my kit. I'll see how mine look in a few months.

I didn't test any other oil. I've been running 10w30 for a bit now hoping it'll help with oil consumption (it has not). I mainly ran the test to make sure using a heavier weight oil wasn't doing any damage.

28 dollars to test a sample.
