If you take the engine out of the car and put it on a dynamometer, you have a pretty good chance at being able to read a HP gain.
If you leave the engine in the car you have a very low probability of feeling any difference.
As to fuel economy:
A motor oil can deliver 2%-3% gains.
A change in driving habits can result in 20% gains.
So your driving habits are 10× what the change in oil can deliver and can EASILY swamp any change in oil.
