Fram Endurance VS Carquest EP Synthetic

If you like this CarQuest Extended Performance just go to Canadian Tire and check out the Castrol Synthetic filter... It's almost the same as this Carquest even though it's made by a different company.

They are quite a nice filter as well yeah, in the Korean Ecotec Variety (CAS10246) they are however $20 CAD Which I am trying to avoid. The Castrols are sourced from Gki who I am guessing source similar to premium guard.

Exactly. There are plenty of good filters to buy if you're willing to spend $14-20 a piece. I want well built, 99@20 or better for <$10. Too much to ask?

He was asking about the full synthetic filters.. so I mentioned that very nice Castrol which is $14 U.S. which is expected for a full synthetic. Of course the synthetic blends are cheaper.

The Castrol is made by QAP filter China who owns GKI Canada.
