HP4 is a Synthetic blend oil and inferior to full synthetic. Read this All you need to know about oil.

Bottom line I quote.

Synthetic blend oil is a blend of full synthetic oil and conventional petroleum-based oil, a compromise between full synthetic quality and economy. The cost is intermediate between full synthetic oil and conventional oil. The benefits of synthetic oil are at least partially provided at a lower cost per oil change to the consumer.
Go with the Amsoil O w 40 it full synthetic. Whats the big savings going with a blend for just a couple of quarts?
