Re: Oil filters
If you're talking about the Porsche 944 filter, the benefits are:
larger surface area = 1. better cooling 2. more filtration 3. increases your oil capacity
it's not going to add 10HP or anything like that, but if u can make your motor work more efficiently why not do it? The OEM filter is clearly way too small for the 3.3L boxer engine on our cars.
BTW, I use STP brand oil filters and it's the same price for the Porsche 944 and the SVX OEM filter, like $6 from auto zone. I've cut one open and they're probably just as good as Wix, they're definitely better than Fram.
