I am not sure what I have heard on this subject. What I do know is a k&n is just a relabeled filter(which I don't know), and the pure one's are good. They are good because of the amount of plets and the suface area for particles to pas through. Now how much of a difference this means not much I guess. It's a bit more restrictive so oil pressure may go up. I switched to this filter at 928 miles at that time I switched to a syn blend and my oil change went up to about the 2nd have of my gauage(I own a RAM, may be different) I think it's about 70psi or so. When I just start the car it's a little over 40 then goes up once the pump does a good job with it's mojo. Now on 3500 miles w full syn it's the same as the syn. blend. No problems yet and I so far like the combination I have.

Hey, again all I know is that a pure one filters the oil well. It is a tad more restrictive(Not a Pro or Con).

An oil filter which "flows better" is less restrictive and may or may not filter better then the more restrictive one. As far as I remember the K&N isn't it's own filter merely a repackaged one from someone else who friggen knows it might be a pure one.

If you want to know do a search on these boards the links to the studies are here. You have to find it.

I've always used Fram and my pressure if anything over the years has gone up. Stick with what works.
