    They're crap dude, plain and simple. Even with google you'll find where people have cut them open and what's inside you might as well use an old soda can and some cardboard.'

    This sort of research is what got me to choose Purolator PureOne's. In the scope of things they are a really good filter for the price (even better than the K&N's). Only reason I use the K&N's on my bikes is the nut on the end makes for getting some really odd filter positions easier to work with.

    Works well IMO, I change it every 2500-3000 depending on driving conditions, but im not the babying type (stupid WHINE addiction). Its usually just starting to get dark when I change it out, but I don't like the whole safe to 9000+ miles that the synthetic give you, Id rather save money *short term* and change it more to keep an eye on everything. Thats too many miles for how I drive

    LOL @ Spartans GIF
