From my previous job I was able to get a discount from napa so the napa gold filters were like a little over $4. That was out in California as well. Convenience was really nice since the napa store was about a block away from the shop I worked at, so if I had to work on my car I could drain the oil while I walked to napa to get a filter.

I think I should clarify my coment, when I said you can't beat I actually meant WIX does well for the price.

Since you have sold all these do you have cutout pictures of each?

I have a fram Tough Guard on there right now but I want the best that I can readily get Oem/WIX/Purolator/k&n/ECT... . So I may end up doing a filter test on my current motor so that way when the built on is finished I can get the best one.

oddly enough i dont have that many pictures,,, i think i took some pictures of the OEM Evo 8 short style and i had a thread showing the filter element and i will tell you i was not impressed for the price i rather purchase WIX filters.

I actually use MANN, WIX and AMSOIL EA,, currently i am leaning towards spending extra and just getting the AMSOIL EA nano fiber.

If you could find it that would be great because then some pictures could be source and we could have a true comparison. Not saying I dont trust you but I like hard evidence
