    Holy filter failure Batman!

    Some engines just burn cleaner that others.... GM seems to have problems getting cylinder sizes accurate to keep pistons from slapping around in there... just do a little research on the internet, it is pitiful... not to mention the metal shavings in their Corvette motors… pretty pathetic really.

    Napa Gold 1334 & Platinum 41334 Cut Open

    I will take flow on the synthetic Wix filter over absolute filtering anytime. It is a wire mesh backed synthetic media filter and the rest of the filter is made of high quality components.

    Help Me Choose Between These 4 Filters!

    Doesn't make sense to me that an international filter manufacturer would stray from a standardized filter rating system, sorry, I just don't buy it. The red to red , blue to blue thing just doesn't make any sense either with the equal sign in between.

    If you follow the mathematical formula for calculating Beta ratios, the Beta particle size is always expressed to the left of the equals sign, I don't want to argue, that's just how it is. Plug the numbers into the formula, there really is no wiggle room to debate.
