Re: WIX oil filter
If it helps you fleece vs filter fans to sleep at night, I can assure you that this topic is rarely discussed in places where guys spend tens of thousands of dollars on crazy high horsepower engines. Just buy a good quality filter and be done with it.
If these 3.2 engines are so fussy that a paper vs fleece filter does it in, I'll go ahead and sell our Crossfire before the wife gets completely attached to it. Seriously, if K&N oil filters can support 1,000+ hp forced induction engines and not worry owners, I think they'll do fine on a Crossfire.
