Not sure if anyone seems to post this. Seems like this area is more on discussions, but any way I swapped out my oem motorcraft at 15k for a mahle. OEM wasn't to dirty but did have dirt in it. 2018 Taurus 3.5L.
Yeah I thought about going the K&N route but they say they dont filter as good and power are only in the upper RPM range. It's a Taurus not a race car LOL
