    We are thinking of doing an OEM video in this series, any suggestions?
  • @SneakyB
    I'd be interested to see how Bosch, Amsoil and maybe even ones that come with magnets such as HKS fair in the test
  • I've always used the FRAM Ultra in my Acura TL-S and it has gotten my engine to 343k miles no problem. Despite not having the best differential pressure, the FRAM Ultra is certainly good enough for the average car, and this is coming from someone who lives in freezing Wisconsin winters. Add in its great construction, excellent filtration capabilities, wide availability, and $9 price tag, I can't recommend it enough. Although, I think for only an extra $3, I'm going to upgrade to the Purolator Boss as it has proven to be a clear winner in every aspect compared to the Ultra. Thank you so much for this video, I've been waiting for a scientific approach on oil filters like this for a long time. I can't wait to see additional tests and where your channel goes in the future.

    your guys channel is criminally underrated. I've seen a few comments saying to test OEM filters and I'm with them on that. it would also be cool to see you guys test a baldwin filter

    I used the orange can of death for years. Never had any trouble.
  • As a subscriber from early on, your content continues to impress! Completely fact based. Testing of OEM's such as Motorcraft and AC Delco would be interesting. Keep up the stellar work!

    I really hope these other videos gain as much traction as the prior tests! I ran the Fram endurance in my last oil change on my 04 lly duramax because of this video. I was shocked how much it filtered considering my oil didn't turn black nearly as much as before since the endurance filtered so much soot out of the oil! Excited for future tests!!!
  • @todd5082
    Keep these oil filter tests coming! ! !
  • @DKSOOHOO1
    Fantastic follow-up oil filter test! Keep them coming!

    I was skeptical about the new Fram Endurance as regards their claims about high flow rate. This video seems to confirm verify their claim. I may just have to give it a try as I value flow rate over excessive filtration.
  • Outstanding comparison, thanks for sharing! Glad to see that the Fram Ultra isn't nearly as restrictive as many claim, it actually seems to be a very solid filter for the price. The biggest thing I don't like about the Fram filters I've seen is that the end of the filter isn't covered, so random debris could potentially end up in the clean side of the filter and go straight into the engine. I don't think using filters that are shipped and stored open to the atmosphere is the best idea and it couldn't cost that much to cover the end or just seal the entire filter in plastic wrap.

    Again, awesome information. Didn’t disappoint with excellent information. I’m definitely looking forward to the next one!!
  • Great video. Your channel, editing and testing methods are top notch. Just wish you would upload more often because I really enjoy watching your videos. lol. Would love to see if you can test Ryco branded filter since that’s the most common filter here in Australia. Unfortunately many of the filters you tested aren’t available here or are hard to find. Keep up the great work guys!!
  • @joekickass2819
    Thanks for this series!! Could you test different OEM filters (Honda, Toyota, etc) to add to the dataset
  • @SirD31V1D
    This video rocks! Finally a good one with a nice objective on filters.
  • @lukeWiz44
    another great video in this series. can’t wait for the next
  • @garyhiland6013
    Three filters I want to see tested: Mobil 1, Mobil 1 and Mobil 1. Best oil filter testing on youtube and I appreciate it. For now I'll be a Purolator Boss man, but you know, Mobil 1.....

    Man keep uploading i'm so interested in all brands vs videos more often, even if its garden tools, power tools, diy tools, socket sets, rims and more! And even air filters! K&N especially
