I did my first oil change on my SI lastnight at 4870 miles. Dang was the filter on there tight. It was over torqued so bad, and what made it even worse was the end of the filter was rounded off a bit making it impossible for the filter wrench to grab. I also did not take the tire off, just turned the wheel all the way to the right, there was plenty of room to remove the filter.

Royal Purple 5w-30 all the way.
