Kinda like putting Peb Boys wheel covers on it too. Maybe it's just me, but if I have a nice Porsche I'm going to use a Porsche oil filter, especially if it's a spin-on that's visible, or at least a name brand aftermarket one.

I could call it a Wix if that is better.

And the only way to see the filter on this car is if you crawl underneath the middle of the car, it's virtually impossible to see from anywhere when you have the car on the ground. This is the Cayman so the engine is in the middle and not hanging off the back like the 911. it's not anywhere near like putting pep boys wheel's on it, but of course when you get your Porsche you are free to use the oem filter.

But just curious, who makes Porsche filters anyway? Probably mahle, so nothing special.

Mahle, Mann, Hengst. All are good brands.

The 51516 is a slightly taller version of the 51348, but the larger filter is not going to be necessary with a planned 5k mile OFCI.

I have a length constraint so both these filters are probably to long. I think with the length the adapter takes up I am limited to about 4" but I am going to measure everything when I install to be sure.

The Toyota 90915-yzzd3 is a good filter that might be short enough to fit. The threads and pitch is right if it'll fit. The 90915-yzzd1 is basically the same filter, just a little shorter. They're cheap and readily available. Walmart is even carrying some Toyota filters now. I used the D3 on my 4.0 Tacoma for 12 years, I've never seen any issues on any of the Toyota filters I've cut open.

There's a thread over on tacomaworld comparing a bunch of 3/4-16 filters that will fit the Tacoma. There a picture of a 90915-yzzd3 compared to your 1348 (wix 51348).

Actually fond out the the fitment they choose was the same as the Tacoma, so thanks for those links and information.

By everything I know and have read, if a manufacturer calls for an oil filter with no bypass, that means there is an oil bypass circuit built into the engine or the oil pump. Also, I would not at all worry about using an oil filter with a bypass if no bypass is called for -- it's just an additional level of insurance. Surely some will disagree.

The oil pump bypass (aka, pressure relief valve) has nothing to do with an oil filter bypass valve.

Just so everyone knows I am going to use a filter with a bypass. Looking at the Toyota one or a baldwin b7020

Installing a filter with a bypass defeats the entire purpose of the LN adapter.

Are you concerned about efficiency?

Yes, what I meant by that statement is I was not worried about how much a filter can hold before it's clogged. Because I am not doing extended drains on this car.

Yep, it's Mahle. Nothing special. If you want to run a filter with a bypass you're better off buying a new filter and housing. They're available together as a kit, $20 from the dealer.

I emailed Baldwin about the B7020 to get the specs. They told me it flows 15 to 20 GPM and sent this screenshot

Also I was looking at the oem cartridge filter, it is 5.5" long and with the canister probably a little longer. Taking into account the space the adapter takes up, about half an inch, I could probably run the Fram XG3600. I will know for sure once I get the car lifted up, but this might end up being my plan.

I don't take your point.

Th LN Adapter is 13/16-16 and is intended to be used with the Wix/Napa 1042, etc.

The XG3600 will not fit the adapter, nor will the Baldwin 7020.

He says they sent a 1348, which is 3/4-16. I assume that fits the adapter or they would not have sent it with it? Does the adapter have different size nipples with it or available?
