Nobody can tell how an oil filter flows just by looking at it. Only way to know for sure is to see measured delta-p vs flow data.
I think you have the WIX XP mixed up with the Ultra. The WIX XP clearly shows to have the "removable neck that seats into the filter where the ADBV then seats" The Ultra has no such neck. And yes, that looks like a metal-to-metal "seal".
Good catch... thanks.I'll edit the post and update.
(edit: I can't edit the previous post since there are already replies)
I think my eyes must have gone crossed from all the photo embed code
Also, I wasn't trying to imply I had done the delta-p vs flow data measurement... apologies if I gave that impression. Was interesting for me to see the physical construct of each filter once opened up from an observational perspective... realizing it's irrelevance.
