Can't wait until my UOA and the other 2 who posted 19k mile FU filters get back. Won't silence the doubters, but they'll have to eat a little crow.
It does look great. Fu is the only thing FRAM ever did right.

I agree , I think the Fram Ultra is the best Filter out there right now.
Nothing comes close
a guy just posed picture of a BD+ and the filter didnt look in good shape IMO.
Plus the price is right with a FRAM ULTRA..
Fram Did a Good job on the FRAM ULTRA
and personally I think it can go 20K miles with a good clean engine and with Good Oil that is made for 20 Miles

Sure all them filters you said above are good oil filters
However would you run a Boesh Distance Plus

Awesome report, the oil filter obviously had no issues with capacity or removing insolubles.

After some drying out.
Looks awesome. I'm also a fan of the FU.
Really there's nothing in there that could really break down so as long as you have good oil chemistry (i.e. acidic PH, excessive soot, etc). The end cap glue is thick and made for the application. The check valve is silicone. The media is synthetic. Can't go wrong.
Thing I always liked about FRAM stuff is that (despite being owned by a private owner now) they were once a Honeywell-owned brand for a decade or so and before that an Allied-Signal-owned brand for many years. Both huge powerhouse companies with PHD's, smart engineers, big labs, tons of resources, statistical wizardy, etc. Look at Wix...they were owned by Dana who went kaput. Pur0later has always been a stagnant filter company who dabbled in logistics for a while, but now owned by Mann-Hummel. Soon Wix-Mann-Puro will all be under the same owner. And Champion more-or-less was always a small-town low tech manufacturer (now FRAM).
