OIL filter urban legend? - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

jonszr1 · 11-12-2006

I was wondering about the flow rates. they seem very different? what is the optimium flow rates of a filter for a zr1 ? Is a high rate mean bigger particals go through? At what pt could the filter cause a loss of oil pressure? I guess I'm curious. I tried a mobil one and noticed a definate decrease in pressure on the gauge. So much so i stopped asap found a napa store and picked up one of their napa gold 1324, which I believe is made by wicks. any insite would be a great help.
