    interesting result from oversized oil filters

    I have heard people saying oversized oil filters reduce your oil pressure, while others say it increases it. I just changed my oil in my b20/vtec since it needed it and used the same oil (synthetic) but a different filter. Supertech 3950. It is a wal-mart brand filter, but has been proven to be...

    which is better.. mobil 1 supersyn or tri-syn

    what exactly is a group 3 base oil, and what makes it inferior to others. One thing to note though, I did put supertech synthetic in my brother's car as a guinea pig. Waiting for it to hit 5000 and will do an oil analysis on it. One interesting thing regarding this is that my brother out of...

    Taking my SuperTech oil filter back...

    which filter are you taling about?? ST 2808 or the 3950?? I have a filter wrench that is universal, that clamps down on the filter only when you are torquing it. You should invest in an oil filter wrench similar to that.

    trying supertech synthetic for analysis

    Just put that stuff in one of my cars.. A 97 honda civic and draining it out at 5000 mile interval and planning on sending the oil out for analysis. My question is the car has roughly 56000 miles in it and never has seen synthetic. With conventional oil, I think I read somewhere that overtime...
