Mine measures the same things. If it can go 15,000 on dino then the same mileage on synthetic should be fine. The big benefits for me are winter starting, and turbo life. I was mostly referring to older vehicles 15 years or older. I put synthetic in a 89 mustang and it leaked way worse than conventional 10-30.

Yeah for sure. If your vehicle is happy to go 15,000 on conventional oil, then the increased durability of synthetic oil is an added benefit since its providing better lubrication as it nears end of use. Plus the benefits as noted regarding your turbo.
