try it..

My store now shows $8.04 woo hooo going to grab a case of these baby's!


still wish we knew the efficiency ratings on these things.

+1 I reserved 2 (41515 and 41085) online. then I'll wait 2 days for them to order them. though last time I got an email the next day saying my order way ready to be picked up.

I have a good size stash of P1 and some boschs from rebates... but if it is only gonna be on sale for a month I might have to get a few more.

Found a cool video:

they should have called it an ULTRA filter... since they use it to describe the parts... "Ultra Life..."

This looks like an awesome filter and all...

but I'm still not sure I get all of the hype when there are no beta ratios available for it, no flow charts and a dome-end bypass (yes, I'm one of the "bypass whiners"...).

I'd probably want that information before I'd buy case of $8.00 filters, but maybe that's just me. Yeah, it's a full glass media, so it *should* flow well and filter well, but there seems to be a dearth of real information about the filter. It does seem well-constructed, for sure.

Yeah, me too. If looking for a good reason, and all best features to spend more money constitutes, "whining" then put me down as a whiner too.
But then, us whiners truly understand how oil flows through a filter, don't we?.

Yep ... one of the pluses of the screened back glass media is good flow.
