So it's just a Champion ecore filter, the supertech from Wallyworld is the same filter at a better value, and I think you could get one of those and a just of STFS cheaper than AAP oil change "deal" with carquest conventional and a Fram drive filter.
Wow-looks like the $1.38 Rock Auto Ecore specials! Apparently "Frampion" rides again!
It's an orange AcDelco PF2057 Essentially.
Construction looks decent ... eCore cage looks good and plenty of media so I'd have no worries.
Strange that they reference ISO 4548-12 on the box, but no mention of the ISO efficiency. It is made for AAP, so maybe AAP didn't want that much info on the box (?).
Nice C&P as usual DuckRyder.

Its defiantly a Champion E-Core. It is hard to see but it even has the signature Champion ink on top.
Apparently its a Framption, not too sure about the Rock Auto
The black ones?
I cut a 2057 open a good while back and it isn't the same.

However Whip City Wrencher has one on The Tube of You and it appears to be the same.
I prefer blue and $2.00 and change cheaper.., too.
That is an older one. The current part number I stock at my dealer is the same e-core construction as pictured above from what I can tell looking down the hole.
I have not been paying attention, apparently these are exclusive to AAP and pushing out the Carquest Red filters? Does seem like an orange SuperTech with a 2$ Orange Tax. still looks better than an ExtraGuard though.
Essentially yes, although Supertech filters aren't available in a 7317 size only 6607, for the price I'd much rather have the OCOD with a silicone ADBV.
Yeah I hate they got rid of 7317 when they moved to champ from wix.
Not sure why anyone would want the nitrile ADBV Drive over the silicone ADBV Extra Guard (for more $). The “Fram” labeled Champion Labs filters are weird too. AAP went from dumping Fram for Purolator, to an over correction-Fram EVERYTHING!
