Royal Purple or Mobil1 Ep oil filter
- Thread starter oilwise
- Start date
You can’t NEVER go wrong with ANYTHING that have the name Mobil 1 .
if you hold Mobil 1 oil filter you can feel that thing is quality . Easy to find every day at Walmart .
for me sometime I just like stick with none wire back oil filter .

So you can?
Whenever I feel like spend more I grab a Mobil 1 oil and Mobil 1 filter .
Back when I work at the performing / audio shop . That is the go to combo we install on 99% of customer 700whp-1000whp . That race daily at the track / street . DD . Drive cross the country . Towing serious heavy load ( redline for transmission and front and rear diff )
now I just keep it simple on my dd either fram orange can or motorcraft oil filter and change out every 3-5k or every 6 month with Quaker state line oil , they cheap and do the job for me just fine .
I guess if you wanted to use a Royal Purple oil filter and slum it by using Mobil 1 motor oil, I'll give you a pass. Your engine deserves Royal Purple motor oil though

Aren't the new Mobi1 Filters rebadged BOSS?

The one for my Toyota is a rebadged PureOne. Media on both is tinted blue or green, and its a cellulose blend. Definitely not Boss media.
Nah my engine deserves a VW 504 00 oil with documented performance such as Castrol Edge 5W-30 LL or Mobil 1 ESP.I guess if you wanted to use a Royal Purple oil filter and slum it by using Mobil 1 motor oil, I'll give you a pass. Your engine deserves Royal Purple motor oil though
Unless you run them for multiple OCIs, or the Tearolator lets you down & allows dirt to bypass the media, potentially damaging bearings, etc. If you're a cheapskate like me, and drive your (mostly bought used) vehicles into oblivion, it could make a difference for timing chains & bearings.
The purple cans look much better than the plain-Jane Mobil cans, so definitely go with RP. Even better if it matches the oil color.
It's junk. You're paying $3-4 more over a comparably TG Fram for nothing
Boss filters are full synthetic media, new Mobil1 afaik is still cellulose-blend
I would use either with no worries.
Do you have a Donaldson dealer/agent?
Royal Purple = Amsoil = Donaldson ... all the same filter.
Well........ maybe not "Junk".....
I agree with this statement.
Yea they are $20 plus delivery here and $36 on amazon AU. I'm using a Fram Racing now $23 delivered. You can't get a decent filter in Australia under $20.
IMHO, “A” suffix M1s are now Mann built. A TG would be BETTER!
