Interesting source. I've never seen a Premium Guard with 6 inlet holes or made in India, but I've never seen a filter other than a Premium Guard that said "Leak Tested" on it. 
Looks pretty good for an entry level filter. I'd run it.

Looks better than the M+H Wix abomination.
Looks like the purolator tech I cut up. This is also an India made jobber.Interesting source. I've never seen a Premium Guard with 6 inlet holes or made in India, but I've never seen a filter other than a Premium Guard that said "Leak Tested" on it.

Looks like a fine regular interval filter to me
96 percent efficiency at 20 microns

No concern for the bypass valve ? He talks of it at 13:23 in the video . Otherwise , good looking filter .

No, poking a bypass with a pen doesn't mean much but he comments it's stiff (it's Subaru so it should be) and that it seems to "work perfectly unlike some others".
Exactly. Pretty much meaningless. And same dude that said the bypass setting on the Ultra he had 'about 12 or so ft-lbs.'
With out knowing the efficiency at 20 microns its just another filter.
The STP Extended Life S3614XL shown "Micron Rating" of 42u probably means 42u "absolute efficiency" (98.7% efficiency).Looks like the AUTOZONE STP Extended Life S3614XL for the HYUNDAI Accent is likely produced by PREMIUM GUARD . Not sure about other STP Extended Life or the less expensive STP blue oil filters .
Don't think so ... you fell for their way of stating it. It does not say it's 99% @ 20u. It says it can "remove particles as small as 20u". The "Micron Rating" of 42 microns is the actual efficiency.
