Cut open a Champion C165. Ran ~9000km with Shell Helix Ultra 0w-40 in a Saab 900 turbo 16.
Had some trouble trying to open it, that's why the housing is deformed (and also why there is a scar on the media). More pics and text (in german) on my blog: https://turboseize.wordpress.com/2016/05/25/was-steckt-eigentlich-in-einem-oelfilter/
+ lots of pleats, so probably large surface
+ even spacing of pleats
+ no tears
+ nice construction (metal end caps, spiral core, coil spring)
- adbv is only rubber
- too much glue?
Looks quite ok to me. what do you think?
