    What makes Fram Ultra spin-on filters better?

    wow, just working really hard to bash it are we not? 99%@ particles greater than 20 microns means that 99%+ or all particles 20.1 microns in size are caught. If you want efficiency for a particular XG filter in 5, 10, 15 and 20 microns particles sizes, I will gladly supply it. WIX XP performance...

    ChampLabs filters (incl. AMSOIL) = FRAM filters ?

    Amsoil filters are made by Champion Labs, Not Fram. Yes, they use the same tapping plate and bypass valves in many filters as FRAM does in Ultra. That is because FRAM and Champ used to be a joint operating business. That ceased May 2016. The Fram Ultra is a two layer synthetic media, Amsoil is...

    New M1 filters at Walmart $10 and good for 20k

    Let me just pile on here. FRAM Ultra will have new packaging out mid march with 20,000 mile change interval and there will not be a disclaimer about 20k or once a year.

    Originally Posted By: CT8 They have the screen over the bypass Like the Tough Guard used to have. I wonder why the U G element isn't used? This filter media was engineered for flow, not capacity. It is a real nice balance of high flow and decent 94%@20 mcron efficiency. Still has enough...
