What kind of oil filter do you guys use?

Looking for a fight or just being an ***? I don't need to post such a thing as the author of the test you posted said just that. If you have a problem with that statement, then take it up with the author of the study you posted and not me. Don't just look at the page you posted, but read his own comments on the forum in which he posted it.

He's the one who said his own testing is subjective. If you're using it as scientific proof, then that's your problem, since the author of the study says it isn't.

The issue, seems to me, is that you're defending Fram against the naysayers. Again, it's subjective. You like Fram. Other guys don't. Don't like that, take it up with them, as I haven't said one word or the other about Fram filters. You'll also notice I haven't said what I personally use, just what I recommend as a good filter for the value.

No I said you would win the peace prize because this same discussion comes up on every automotive forum on a regular basis. Why because all filters pass the SAE test which show that all filters work better then they need to which was my original point. The minimopar comparison only cuts them up and looks at them, the comparison I put up at least runs oil thorough them and compares what comes out on a test paper which is more scientific then the other comparison. I don't "like" Fram or any other particular brand, I don't care, I buy what seems like a good bang for the buck, any name brand middle of the road filter that is on sale. Sometimes Fram, sometimes, Wx, sometimes Purolator, sometimes who knows. I change my oil between 3000-5000 and replace the filter then so it doesn't matter.
