OIL Filter Study.......(Why Fram filter's suck ass)

[fiveohcrazy]

After talking trash to Jordan today for having a Fram Oil Filter on his Mustang i figured some of you guys really don't know the facts about oil filters.
I'm not an expert by any means but i learned a ton from checking this study out:

I knew NAPA golds were Wix. I'd always recommend them at the oil change to 'vetts, mustangs, camaros, etc and people would look at me like I was nuts I was suggesting something other than Pennzoil

You don't need a study. Run a fram and cut it open when you change your oil, you won't run one again. :lol: My K&N looked pretty good when I opened it up.

Are you basing your judgments on the lack of shavings or the absence of shavings?

:gr_jest:

No, when I cut open a fram before its like there was no filter left. It looked like a big wad of paper tower inside the housing. Whenever I've cut open a K&N it looks pretty decent. I know it's just an expensive rebranded filter, but I do like the spot for a socket on the end.

Some of the ranges are 1999-2008, so it only appears to be a couple of years old.

The facts speak for themselves when it comes to oil filters.
