I didn't say 2.7cP was "very wrong", it's just thicker than necessary. But a VI of 166 is about as low as it gets for a 0W-20 oil.
The combination is an oil that is 25% heavier at temps as warm as room temperature and more than 50% heavier at 0C than for example Toyota's 0W-20. And as much as that is, in reality the difference is likely even greater since the Toyota oil shears about 10% by design.
The point is that Amsoil doesn't offer a 0W-20 oil with a viscosity that auto manufacturers that require that grade specify.
