Hey guys,
A lot of this was mentioned... however i need some clarity.
Again as a reminder... I am running a 1JZ-GTE engine (2.5L turbo) in a toyota crown athlete.
Already in terms of oil i got the 0w 40 Castrol Edge A3/B4 group 4 POA.
I was asking the guys in store about a genuine toyota filter for my car... or as someone here mentioned Ryco Syntec.
The guy here said the K&N HP 1002 part is a high flow filter and will work better than either the ryco or the genuine toyota filter.
My question was which one will filter better without being clogged up.
I mean... if filter holds back the rubbish n after it clogs up goes through the bypass valve (like a genuine filter) then isnt that essentially meaning its not filtering anymore since its bypassing it which means all the metal particles etc will all go back in to the engine through the bypass?
K&n HP 1002 is high flow, but that sounds like 'we dont filter much, most stuff goes through hence it can flow higher'.
So some stuff to me just doesnt make sense....
I spent the time to buy a top oil... i didnt wanna screw the car up by putting some rubbish filter on that either restricts oil flow too much or doesnt filter at all.
I bought the K&N but i can always take it back if im better off with either a ryco or genuine one.
Also what petrol filter would be good for this engine?
