VIRGIN ST-16 filter cut open

Good Morning BITOGERS. Have 3 of these so decided to sacrifice one. Doesn’t look overly bad other than oversized endcaps. Enjoy!

Yeah, my thoughts too. Good for 3k

Plenty good for 5k...

Thank you for the cut and post. That looks like a healthy amount of glue on the caps and overall a pretty good filter.

I stopped buying supertech cans after seeing there be barely a licks worth or even no glue on some sections of the cap in other c&p.

I believe the fiber end caps help seal the imperfections.

Possibly

For the price, no more then 5K is a win.

Thanks Adam great looking filter and price. I just wish their efficiency was a little higher.

Or another way of looking at it ... undersized media. I like the cut-outs on the end cap on the base end for a good oil flow path between the end cap and can.

I think I can see the ruffles impressions in the end cap if you look closely.
