I have the 10575 Supertech on my 2014 3.5 Ecoboost for 3500 miles so far with Delo XLE 10w-30. So far its the best combo for reduced timing chain rattle on startup. Ill run it till 5,000 and do a cut & post. Hopefully its looks good for a $3 filter.

The previous old was Wix, and before that I believe Champion Labs. It is Champion Labs again for the new.
10K miles is nothing for an oil filter.

99% at what micron size? That's what counts. ...
My box says at 30 microns.

I'd like to try a few of these but I can't seem to find them.
The vehicles involved are in the junkyard.

The review I saw they have metal end caps now and synthetic blend media
Look at the ST 9688 I cut and posted: has metal end caps

That isn't very good.

Sure looks like the AC Delco made by Champ … I find 98% at 25-30 microns in several places … not sure I have seen a range before but pretty average filter.

I've run the 10K Supertech in my wife's Malibu for about 10k (two OCIs). Shocked that the nitrile ADBV was not instituting a cold-start bark by then. GM bypass system negates any review on the Supertech bypass, which does not exist.
Had the Supertech 9688 wore a silicone ADBV, I would have snatched a few of those. Because manufacturers like Fram charge $2 more for their 9688, I would have paid $3.97 instead of $1.97 for a Supertech silicone. The Fram EG 9688 is almost $6. I'm sure it's built for the Kia and Hyundai crowd, that had filter problems early-on this past decade.
For my 5K OCIs in the Hyundai, I'm almost sure the nitrile Supertech 9688 would have worked great. But I refuse to buy any filter these days, that do not wear Silicone Red.

Efficiency and particle size
99% for particles greater than 30 microns for the ST2 filter.

As I already pointed out a few posts back (for a different size).
