Some years previously, C.R. did a comprehensive study across many makes & models of cars, and they came to the same conclusion as Jay.
Change it often with filter, before the additives breakdown & oil is blackened, and you have done all that can be done for the system.
Personally, I feel the special additives & OIL brand loyalty is largely "snake oil" sales tactics, i.e. money for nothing.
And make sure you recycle the oil & old filters!
