I know from experience and from many goverment funded ASTM testing that high efficency filters will extend the life of lubricant 3/4 times longer than OEM recommended filters.
Napa, Wix, Luberfiner, Fram, Fleetgaurd, Many others all have XE style filters available for a little extra money.
These filters extend engine life, Fuel Milage and cost less to use over the ownership of any vehicle.
But since People feel much safer using low quality products over and over thinking it is cheap insurance, they definately dont want to hear they are mistaken...

Why buy the 32 micron Nomial filter when you can get the better filter @ 10 Micron Nominal rating? Last 3/4 times longer http://www.wixfilters.com/filterlook...p?Part=51734XE
I dont like being told a standard filter is the best cause that what the OEM recommends, Why in the hell the Filter company makes a much better product to begin with?
FL1995= Wix 51734 want the best? 51734XE thank me thank me very much...
