Filter Help

[goldwing]

Recently purchased a 1999 Acura TL with 50,000 miles from original owner. I would like to use the OEM TOYO ROKI Filter for the Honda S2000. Not interested in the OEM Honda Fram. The Part number for the Toyo Roki is 15400-PCX-004.

Can some of the BITOG Filter Guru's tell me if the enginering PSI's are compatable. The TR filter is much larger but the O-ring location appears to match the OEM Honda Fram.

Thanks for the help.

The Wix website lists their 51334 for the Acura and cross references to the Toyo Roki part number you gave. It's got 20 X 1.5mm threads and an 8-11 psi bypass spec.

Most everything on Wix is 8-11 PSI, same application for my car is 16-18 with Purolator. I don't think Wix is a sound reference for OEM spec.

I use that filter on my 04 Acura TL. It's just fine.

Well, I think that they are ..when it makes a difference. Wix has VW/Audi filters with 30 and 33 psi bypass valves.
