Bought a bunch of it (0-40?) for my Audi and would be great if I could use it in the Hemi that I just bought. Could use a best of oil filter recommendation too.
 
In before someone calls Baldwin a “jobber filter”. 🤣
They make a quality filter to OEM specs. They are not in the "efficiency" race unless that is what the OEM calls for. Their build quality is just as good if not better than most higher dollar more popular filters. Their cans are made like Sherman tanks.
 
Which HEMI?
5.7 non e
From what I see Ram says 5w-20. I would use your 0w-40 if it was me. I would use a Baldwin oil filter. https://ph.baldwinfilters.com/baldwin/en/product/baldwin-spin-on-lube-filters/b160 If you feel the desire to use a different brand of filter, maybe go with a Mobil 1 oil filter.
Micron Rating:18 Nominal; 40 Absolute ?

Never saw it written like that before.....

Not sure what the ESP X4 has or does not have that would make it good or bad. It definitely was not formulated for my Hemi, great oil though.

It's right there on their filter page of each filter they make. Obviously they aren't in the micron race, they match the OEM filter specs for efficiency and flow. I figure that is good enough for the girls I date, plus they are built better than most $15.00 popular filters and don't use that dumb leaf spring/bypass valve design. Oh, and they are owned by and manufactured by the USA, and shipped worldwide.
