I was really bored waiting for my GF to hop into her house and get her gym clothes, so I decided to have a look at my air filter. 8:00 PM, barely any light... the filter looked filthy. So I switched it out for a cheapo Purolator from the trunk stash. After the gym I looked at the original filter in better light. Oops.
Looks like changed it out about 10,000 miles too early. Kind of a shame. The Filtech feels a heck of a lot better built than the Purolator--completely straight, hard plastic vanes to keep it from deforming, nice soft rubber gaskets, sturdy filter material, etc.
Anyway, what filter manufacturer are Honda Civic owners using in their cars? I have a few Fram CA10165 filters in my stash... wondering if anyone likes a different filter better?
