ArvinMeritor (Wix) is a major OEM manufacturer.
You can't beat their products.
You can turn on the FRAM Hyperbole machine on high and you will never displace Wix as the best oil filter out there.
The Wix XP is marketed as an extended performance (XP) oil filter.
That's why it starts at 50% @ 20 microns and improves through "caking" with use.
They are trying to avoid bypass before 15,000 miles.
FRAM only wishes they would wake up tomorrow and be Wix.
