I like Frams now. I like the TG the best but with orangie getting the silicone ADBV, I think I'll just get that. I'm not an oil collector, I buy per oil change so it's easy to get an oil and filter at Walmart.
Before about 2007 or so-you were right-the Purolators ran well, the Frams (and Ecores) were having media issues. Now they've reversed their former positions.

I have no clue what you mean by fiber end caps .
This is the AC Delco filter for our Sonic 1.8l ;

That's a cartridge filter, and looks to have plastic end caps with a felt seal around the center tube. Not the same thing as fiber end caps.

Blah, blah, blah, blah...
Not a single shred of proof provided to substantiate your claims about FRAM, yet you defend Purolator despite the dozens of torn filters posted by various people on the site. No irony there...

All this hand wringing about fiber end caps...
The end caps on Mann cartridges are just glue and no one freaks out.
