I don't doubt it. I wonder what the Bosch "Distance Plus" is going to be then? Maybe deeper pleats for longer OCIs? I can't really tell from Bosch's website.
Here's the Bosch "Premium" ... doesn't even talk about efficiency % ... but I think the boxes do have some kind of rating on them (?):

Here's the Bosch "Distance Plus", which shows the 99.9% efficiency and shows a red gasket like the PureONE.

My theory is that the Bosch Premium will become the Purolator Classic clone, and the Distance Plus will become the PureONE clone.
According to the web site, the Distance Plus will hold about 29 grams. The PureOne holds about 13 grams, per their web site. Probably both use similar media, hence the same 99.9% filtering efficiency. The Pureone site specifies at 20 microns, the Distance Plus site does not specify, as already noted.
Distance Plus might be good for those using ARX, MMO, etc for cleaning, in addition to longer OCIs.
Nice testing work, River Rat.

what micron is the PUREONE and AMSOIL?
PureONE is 99.9% at 20 microns in most sizes. The 14459 our Integra takes is one of the sizes that is 99.9% at 20 microns. The 14610 the RSX takes is NOT a 20 micron filter... although in river_rat's testing, it doesn't seem to make much of a difference.
nice, going to use pureone on my next oil change....

It is amazing the difference in what they are supposed to be able to hold

The Bosch Premium filter boxes I've bought also said
99.9%, except for the last one I got, it said 98% ?
I bought it at AZ, and thought that it must be
old stock, since it was the only 3323 they had on the shelf.
Could it be new stock ? I do not know, for I have only
used Bosch Premiums for the past year........jr

Interesting ... could be the Bosch Premium is morphing into the Purolator Classic's twin (it's @ 97.5%, which rounds to 98%), and the new Bosch Extended will be the PureONE clone, but maybe a little better because it holds more debris (? - theory only).

Wonder how many people will get Bosch Extended (DistancePlus) and Fram Extended (Guard) confused

I can't even remember the new name. If I call tomorrow to see if they got any in yet, I'll still draw a blank...
