Looks great for a low cost oil filter.
Car51 - great results for this filter. It makes me wonder why you would change away from it? Thanks for the C&P.
This is a corporate executives company car. Company talked of using the CQ "reds" but never materialized. I guess we will survive with E CORES. Better than "tear-o-later" junk
Me personally: I like these a bit more than E CORES.

WellOiled: for friends like the new boss that I posted the M1 filter and oil; those KIA/HYUNDAI vehicles get OEM filters. I can get a case for like $38 thru work
You ARE the filter cutting/posting King car51.
Thorromig: I try to cut what I think the gang here would love to see.
Looks great! Thank you for posting

Note that Wix makes their 51334 size filters in Mexico. This Fram is American made.
Fram should just use the CQ Red design in their orange cans. And I agree, this is a very good filter for the price.

If this were a Puro we'd be hearing about big gaps in the pleats and places where the media "could" fail.

HerrStig - I actually did cut a CQ red with some very wide pleats. It does happen.

I am very happy that car51 cut this one open. This is the acid test.
