lightlypurified · 06-21-2007, 12:08 AM

ANyways ive had an K&n gold oil performance filter cant really notice anything but it says u wont have to worry about dry starts. And im really into mugen and does anybody know the benefits from the mugen oil filter from the k&ns?

How much are the retails on them JDM filters anyways...

I've used Purolators mounted on its side on multiple vehicles with no adverse effects. In addition there was a incident where a metal shrapnel knicked my oil filter badly enough that while driving in the desert oil began to leak, and lightly coating my windshield. I thank the lord when I came across a local Walmart, and used their Super-Tech House brand as a replacement. Come to think of it, the car with Super Tech filter is rapidly approaching 190K and still running that same brand filter since that day.

lol...do you really want to spend that much money on an oil filter for a mugen name...?!?!

i am not even going to look up a price but it is probobly near $30-50.

go with k&n if those are your only choices.

Have you ever seen the inside of a fram filter? Junk
best bang for the buck is Napa gold or Pur1 or even the Pro1 at pepeboys
this is some good reading even if it tested Mopar filters They are made the same way for every car makers cars.

Get WIX oil filter they're pretty good. Or just get an OEM oil filter.
