i can't believe there is this much talk about oil and filters. yes they r important but if u really don't know wat to do, do the obvious and get an oem filter and ur cap tells u what oil to buy..

That's an argument for taking better care of your engine, then, isn't it? The best oil filter you can find is much cheaper than a rebuild...

Not an argument about taking care of motors, but there's only two ppl arguing about the use of $50 filters, and using high budgetted race teams to compare to our income.

maybe you should read the posts

the CM filter housing is actually just over 100. but, aside from the initial purchase price, the CM filter actually works out to about the same price as a normal filter. but you prob knew that from reading my earlier posts

I'd still rather use a brand new filter everytime I change my oil. Plus, I run a magnetic plug.
