Ive heard its a good flowing filter with poor efficiency...like Honda and Toyota filters, but robust.

Be aware that Wix has "white-washed" their beta data for almost two years now. Just about everything is rated 2/20=6/20. That is not really bad overall, but pretty much worthless when trying to compare/contrast filters.

Wix has also been known to have typos in their public data information; I've seen several over the years. The B2=20 is most likely a misprint.

Accurate for Honda and Toyota.

Honda is 66% @ 20 microns. That's not really "quite a bit" when B2=20 means 50% @ 20 microns (which is what Toyota is in the test).

It's only 15% higher from the lowly Toyotoa's 51% when using the logical 0 to 100% efficiency scale.
