Dvldoc, Thanks for the informative link to the design analysis and filter performance results of the Fleetguard "dual" venturi filter. The point I was trying to make is that people should NOT use one of these filters as the bypass filter in a typical full flow filter and separate bypass...

Amsoil doesn't seem to want us to know some of its EaBP specifications for its line of bypass cartridges. Here is some additional information for the curious: Seal O.D. is 2.845" and I.D. is 2.460" The thread size appears to be a 1.000"-16 threads per inch The 1"-16 size is not a common one...

50 psi is a huge amount of boost. I can only run about 11 psi on my Dinan turbo BMW or I get into heavy detonation. Thanks for digging up your old oil analysis and posting it. Those numbers look good. For comparison purposes, did you ever have an oil analysis done before installing your B50 DIY...

md_lucky, Please let us know how your Pareto system works out and post some pix of your completed installation. Which size EaBP filter are you getting with your order? I need to check with Pareto, myself. Before Christmas, they were out of adapter plate sizes to fit the V8 on my Jeep Grand...

I am also thinking of using the Pareto magnetic base plate/adapter to supply the bypass oil to a separately mounted Baldwin B164 cartridge filter. This filter is normally used as a bypass filter in hydraulic systems and has had some pretty decent feedback on it with respect to before and after...

Jim, Thanks for posting your particle analysis results. Will be looking forward to more test results from your setup, too. I just wish those [censored] Racor cotton stringwound filter elements were a little more economical... I guess you get what you pay for.

Highline, Are you using the Amsoil EABP90 cartridge filter that comes with the Top Dog V kit or one of the larger Amsoil bypass filter cartridges? Please keep us posted on any particle count or oil analyses that you perform on that Challenger. Using a bypass filter to really clean/trap...

Jim, DeTomaso is my middle name, but we digress. I have already done a bunch of Googling on Racor/Oilguard filter elements over the last few years and have not been too happy with the results. These filter elements have more than tripled in costs since I purchased and installed an Oilguard...

Jim, Please keep us posted on your particle analysis (before and after numbers). Is your TopDog V the magnetic base version? Which lab are you going to use for your analysis? Have you found (I haven't) a reasonable cost source for the Racor cartridge filters? When the Pareto guys get some new...

I am still looking for some lower cost stringwound filter replacements for the Oilguard EPS-10 or EPS-20 filter elements. Has anyone found some good filter substitutes or used a custom built filter ?

What's the price of the NTZ ATF-09 filter housing and what's the price for ATF-09 replacement filter elements? Maybe I am slow today, but I can't find much information on pricing or dealer sources for these items on the internet. For anyone with an ATF-09 installed, how difficult (i.e., messy)...

Well, It's now a year/plus since the last post in this thread, so I thought it is time to re-visit this issue. I have an older turbocharged car with a small EPS-10 bypass filter installed in it, back in 2003. It has kept the oil very clean, but I am now out of replacement filters. Has anyone...
