The older, better, Fram made CQ Blue had a higher efficiency rating (& were identical to the Mobil 1 filters made by Fram/Champ then), the newer Purolator made Blues (as pictured here) are lower. Hoping that Fram will pick up Blue production again!

Rock Auto has a bunch of the Fram FPS5 filters (XG without grippy paint) on closeout for $3.15/ea
