New Valvoline Synpower in 5qt Jugs?

[Dtech]

I was wondering if anyone has seen the new formulation of Valvoline Synpower released in May in the 5qt jugs yet. I'm looking to buy some 10w30 for my next oil change in my '06 Subaru STI but have only seen the quarts so far and in only a couple of places at that.

I want to do some price comparison before I buy the quarts (I saw them for ~$5.25 at Advance Auto Supply) and since I still have about 1500 miles before I'm ready for my next change, I've got some time.

Available in Canada at Wally Mart and Canadian Tire in 4.5 or 5 qt jugs. So it must be available in the US too.

^^ No it's not. I've been wishing for the 5W-40 5qt jug.

What is "new" about Synpower that was made after May?? Do you have a link?

Not sure what the level of change was but the product spec sheet shows that it was revised 5/23/2006. They also changed the bottle containers not too long ago which a company sometimes does to more obviously differentiate an older product from a newer one.
