Here's the short answer: the only Syntec that's as "good" as Mobil 1 is, I believe, the 0W-30 that is made in Germany. For some reason that is different from the stuff made in other places. Something about all Mobil 1 being true synthetics, while most Syntec's are fake synthetic.
To delve deeper into this stuff, check out the forums on http://www.bobistheoilguy.com. The discussions on that site are completely over the top, they talk about oil the way most people talk about politics and religion. Do a search for "GC" which is the abbreviation they use for "German Castrol".
