I wanted to add to this thread. I got my results back two weeks ago.

I'm concerned about the air filtration issue. I have an AEM CAI. Maybe it's time to clean it. I'm not sure now many miles I put on it but it's prob close to 25k.

I am also concerned about the gas contamination. I end up making short trips where the oil does not warm up enough, but I am on the highway everyday to and from work. Usually doing 3500-4000 RPMs for the 7 min trek down 202. That should get the oil warmed up shouldn't it?

Oh, and BTW, the oil used was Castrol Syntec Blend 5W30, not full Syntec 5W50 as they put on the report. I'm going to bite the bullet and switch to Mobil 1 next oil change.
