Well, my other brother came over last night for his 5k mile OC. I had used O'reilly High Mileage 5w30 conventional and this Microguard filter. His car is a 2003 Subaru Legacy with 190k miles on the clock. I put O'reilly High Mileage 5w30 and another Microguard MGL57712 back in, but now i may have him pick up another filter soon and replace this one. I have been cutting up filters for about 8-9 months ever since I stumbled across BITOG, but only recently started taking pictures.
I do OC's for some of my family members(for free) and some friends give me their filters to cut open. I have cut up 3-4 Puro Classics, 4-5 Puro P1's, 2-3 Fram EG's, 2 Fram Ultra's, 1 Mobil1, 3-4 Microguard, 2 random no name and 3-4 Toyota OEM filters. Half of the Puro's I cut open(classics and P1's) were torn and 1 other Microguard had a hole in it like this one, but was a bigger filter not off this car. All other filters I have cut did not have tears or holes. I recommend OEM to family and friends or at least not Puro(because I've seen first hand that they tear), but now I'm adding Microguard to my list to stay away from.
Anyway, here is the Microguard, enjoy.
Ignore metal shavings(used a hack saw)
