Wix has muddied the water with their recent adoption of the 2/20=6=20 white washing of data, except it got even worse with the rating for the XP line ...
I now consider their site nearly worthless for info when it comes to efficiency data.
I find it silly to fiddle with some theory about "best" when real world data reveals two things we cannot and should not ignore:
1) the typical OCI is short enough that contamination does not ever get to levels that are grossly significant; the sump is not dirty enough to show disparity between choices
2) the typical FCI is short enough that a large amount of unused potential is thrown away; having more capacity that is not utilized is not helpful by any measurable means
Therefore, why worry about which has the "best" efficiency, or capacity, or construction when the VAST majority of folks will NEVER leave one on long enough to make any difference. Unused potential is waste; having a super-duper filter that you never run past where a normal filter can perform is not "cheap insurance", it's waste. How does that equate to "best" filtration? Unless your definition of "best" is the "best waste of my money" ...
I have run M/C and Purolator classics for longer than some of you would ever dare to run a premium filter; the UOAs were great and the filter disection showed no ill effect.
Cooper - it is a bit disingenuous to say cost is not a factor, but if that is your criteria, then I'll play along ...
The "best" filter is 10 (ten) bypass filters running concurrent in parallel so that their total flow would suffice for full-flow volume. Now, I'll have to fabricate some type of home-made manifold system to mount those in the trunk and plumb it all the way up to the engine. You know, because cost is no object ...
