I went to two local chain parts stores, they both gave the the same mobil 1 (110) and K&N (1010) Oil filters for an 06 Evo. They look longer and skinnyer..... I looked at the year priors filters and they are shorter and larger in circumferance. My problem is that the one on my car OEM is like the older ones and nothing like the Filters they are trying to sell me. Any info would be great...

Thanks

they are the exact same filter for the 8 and 9.... it has been posted numerous times, over and over again, i've done so several times myself. also, you dont exactly need the k and n.... the fram works just fine model 7317 any of the guards work ph, tg, or whatever.

I recently put a mobil 1 on my ix and noticed the mobil 1 was longer and skinnier then the stocker too...no problems as of yet.

the mobil 1 will filter better than the K&N.

Anyone have a solid answer as to why the Chain auto store data bases have a new size filter for the iX....??

Is it actually a different size, or just a change in part number? Part number changes are common. By size I mean the footprint (gasket). If the can is longer or fatter it won't matter much as long as the gasket is the same size, oil filters aren't rocket science and the 9 doesn't require anything different than the 8.

All the filters I looked at where skinnyer and longer. As for the gasket, I neglected to look. BUt I will tomorrow.

I run K&N on mine. The gasket diameter is the same. The oem mitsu filter has an o-ring instead of flat gasket like the K&N. The flat gasket on the K&N does not leak even at 7500 rpm, so I don't see that as an issue.

The factory part numbers have changed on the oil filters, so everyone elses may have also.

I stopped buy a dealer yesterday and they had a special in the parts department, 3 filter for $12.50, or 1 for $8.
I said 3 please

I was thinking about putting one of those magnets on the outside of my filter and wanted to know which one to get. Any addeded protection IMO is worth it.

That is their selection.


You guys think this is the correct one?

Use only MITSU filters. You dont have to worry bout "which one is the right one" and if you ahve any warranty issues you dont have to fight with MITSU over not using OEM parts. Seems easy enough to me.
