I've seen too many motors destroyed because they used Fram filters. A buddy of mine worked at an audi dealer and in 1 year they replaced 3 motors in different cars and they traced them all to the oil filter... Fram.

They filter really well, but the problem is that they filter TOO well and drop pressure. Now, on motors that run higher pressure like ours its not as huge of a deal, but when a motor is run hard it just starves the bearings for oil.

I can think of a few other people who had similar experiences and ruined motors because of Fram filters.

A buddy of mine went to school at a nationally known mechanic school (UTI) and even one of his instructors told the class that he was at Wal-Mart one time and had to get a filter. It was between Fram and WalMarts own brand, and he bought the WalMart filter. He told the class to avoid Fram filters at all costs.
