ScottyB Wrote:Interesting you brought up NAPA gold, I actually picked one up (I bought a NAPA gold air filter as well because I knew it was made by WIX) but returned it and opted for the PureOne again. There wasn't really any good reason for it because I know WIX filters are good. I think it's because the WIX filters use a "glass-infused cellulose" media which is basically cardboard. If I remember right, the PureOne uses a synthetic media, correct me if I'm wrong though.WRXtranceformed Wrote:So I've been sticking with the Purolator PureOnes (~$7ish) which have very high filtration but marginally decreased flow rate.
you may want to look into NAPA gold filters as well. the are Wix sourced and very high quality. i bought a batch for the xterra from fleetfilters.com for a good price.
