Why is nobody giving Purolators any love?

That's about all I use. They are good quality in my opinion. I use Purolator for air filter and for oil filter.

I use WIX oil filters and have a K&N drop in air filter.

I've used K&N and Wix. Wix looks like a better filter after examination by dissection, and is cheaper. I sometimes still use K&N because I like having that nut on the end of it, very easy to get on and off, but I prefer Wix.

Purolater isn't bad from what I've heard of it.

A NAPA Gold filter is a WIX filter renamed.

Well, after I change my plenum plate, I am going to run the 25,000 mile Amsoil and Eo filter.

I have thought about going synthetic, but it's not a smart move for me. It just doesnt make sense to be buying syn oil when I buy Rotella by the 55 gallon drum.

I have seriously thought about using Amsoil, and I do 2 oil changes every year that costs $70, and 1 Amsoil change should come out to $60 (preffered customer pricing).
