I'd argue against the statement that the Fusion is "healthy"... 26ppm iron and 14ppm aluminum in 9k miles?? My Fusion, SirTanon, and I think SilverFusion too (but me and Sir for sure) both have UOAs with much longer OCIs that have wear rates around 1ppm/1k Fe and .2 ppm/1k Al. I'd hardly call 3ppm and .6ppm rates normal... they are around 3 times the wear rate. I don't know how their testing is, but I have MG filters on my Fusion and Odyssey right now and will be posting UOAs when they are due.
Considering I've got literally 100k of UOAs on the Fusion with OCIs ranging from 7.6k to 17.2k, I've got a pretty good statistical wear baseline to evaluate the MG filters against the Amsoil, FU, and Napa Platinum that I've used previously.
I don't know how they tested or the condition of those engines, but I'm willing to bet that just about any filter would have a hard time dealing with that kind of loading over a "relatively" short OCI.
Well said. Note the lack of TBN in a UOA that Microgreen they themselves ordered. How can they claim oil will last 30,000 miles and then not get TBN?
But it is the particle counts and ISO cleanliness code that really confirms this filter is not 99% efficient down to 5 microns. Instead it looks like the co founder, Dr Assion is telling the truth when he says since 2013 they changed the materials and it is 82% at 20 microns.
If you order particle counts in your UOA, then we'll have even more confirmation.
