The Multi pass test occurs over a time based test protocol. It is a really a true test of how much dirt the filter removes in particle sizes 5- whatever size becomes absolute or 98.7%. You can get a copy of the full 4548-12 ISO test at the filter manufacturers council website. I cannot publish...

You just described multi pass efficiency. Honda OE filters made by FRAM are 65% @ 20 microns, they have 15 gram capacity and flow 10gpm

How about a picture? Sounds like you bought clearanced filters

Hello Boys The transition to silicone adbv's has started and will not be complete until Jan 2018. Likely high running part nubers get them first and then all part numbers. Its a huge transition for us, 280 millions Eg filters means our supplier had to ramp up production of the valves and that...

The short answer is no. If you use a filter not cataloged for the application, there is no warranty. So if you had an issue with a failure, you are on your own. Every filter company has the same policy. There are a significant differences in the o ring between the XG5 and XG9100. That said, why...

Well I have to say we have tried very hard to reach this guy. He was very quick to claim "FRAM is garbage" and yet does not respond to public or private messages. There is nothing else we can do to resolve this unless we can see and evaluate the filter. He cared enough to hop on here and post...

Champion no longer supplies the STP filter. AZ buys direct from an offshore manufacturer.

Well, We have made multiple attempts to contact this poster, get the filter back and report what exactly happened. The poster does not return calls and has made no arrangements to return the filter. Last chance, I will send you a case of XG filters if you will just send in this filter for...

Anything I publish is only from our lab, if you want the real deal that is undisbutable, ask WIX to provide the efficiecny of the filters with that rubber combo valve to you. bet they will not but who knows

Champion Labs is OE and OES

filter cutters are 24.95 at summit racing. Thanks for posting!

Just Zones attempt to kill American brands by pushing offshore made store brand products. the filters are mediocre at best and overpriced for the performance. The big retail auto parts stores are doing everything they can to run the race to the bottom on parts quality by cutting out major...

Originally Posted By: HerrStig I'm sure the "inferior spec" OEM Japanese filters are why vehicles from Toyota, for example, often run 3 or 4 hundred thousand miles. The "Boutique" filter makers have to gin up some kind of argument. I think this has more to do with the build quality of japanese...

the XG8A flows around 15gpm. To get to 20 you need a racing filter. If running a remote mount and you want the end all filter, use the HP6. Flows 22 gpm, holds two quarts, 200 psi operating pressure, 500 psi burst pressure. Total overkill but seems that is the direction your headed. I ran a 2275...
