K&N Plaitum, K&N Gold, Royal Purple, Fram Titanium - Break Down And Review - Fram / Gold - Tie

[@mikes1292]

Some big turbo cars can sling the dipstick right out of the engine u got to wonder what the filter is doing under 20 or 30lb of boost

[@brucepeterson6104]

Good video..

[@TheTyisawesome]

Awesome, Thanks for the thorough breakdown! Glad to see my go-to filter, The K&N gold holding its own against the competition.

[@flexjay87]

Fram Titanium is a real eye opener.

[@bobby1970]

Is it better than the Fram Ultra?

[@robertkeefer1552]

Seeing the Fram Titanium construction, I would not hesitate in getting it. Well built.

[@bobby1970]

Yeah, but does it have 20 micron filteration like the Fram Ultra?

[@seanthompson8071]

At one time Champion Labs made filters for Mobil 1, K&N, Pennzoil, Walmart (Supertech), Royal Purple and others. But, as you point out, some of these companies have switched vendors in the last decade.

[@mikezat6328]

I just did my first ever DIY oil change @ 3K on my 2021 Tacoma with the 4cyl 2TR FE. Used the K&N gold filter along with their brand of 0w20 oil. Love the channel. I have brand loyalty which is why I went with them.

[@Robs_Got_A_Gun]

K&N has always seemed good to me, i don't like their Performance Air filters Due to them allowing more "Dust" in the Engine, But gives better "Air Flow" ofcourse. I'd rather keep my Rings and Valves in good condition than get 5HP to 10HP boost

[@mikezat6328]

@@Robs_Got_A_Gun Respectable. I will acknowledge Theres a lot of love hate with the air filters. To each there own though.

[@mikezat6328]

@Tee Mack The 2TR FE is a small motor and very easy to work on. The truck is part of the Tacoma Culture. Lots of groups and support with that particular truck so between YT videos and some homework it was a breeze. And I'm a complete novice.

[@mikezat6328]

@@chadpugh1490 They will not do the "free change" until 10k they only check it at 5K if you read the fine print. I'm sticking to the traditional 3K-4K intervals.

If 6000 miles wears out motor oil and my lawn tractor hour meter times out at 100 hours. Is 60 mph X 100 hours the same? My generators oil at 100 hours looks darker than my 3000 mile car oil with a filter. Tractor hour meters go how long with a filter? Hmm!???!

[@jmjimbo]

Dang royal purple filters which are made by champ labs have switched to the ecore. Guess I need to switch back to Wix/NAPA Platinum

[@jlbrown2622]

Have you had any experience with the premium guard extended life oil filters? I'd like to get your opinion/possible video test...

[@elihernandez330]

winner for value still goes to the fram ultra then the titanium.

[@jerryjeromehawkins1712]

Unfortunately Eli... Fram has changed the media on the Titanium and Ultra.

[@elihernandez330]

@@jerryjeromehawkins1712 yeah I think I heard of that. I believe they actually made the synthetic blend media actually better but they removed the wire backing and kept the same metal caps so they kind of did downgrade it but they also claim to have improved the sub 20 microphone filtering efficiency which in reality is what actually matters. the engine doesn't care about wire backing and caps as long as it just seals it

[@jerryjeromehawkins1712]

@@elihernandez330 hey Eli. That's good news then. I've been using nothing but the Fram ultra along with Pennzoil platinum on my 5.0 for the past 5 years... I refuse to use anything else, lol. 🍻

[@elihernandez330]

@@jerryjeromehawkins1712 although it may seem like the Fram Ultra and titanium got downgraded it's really not even a big deal. the wire backing was just a luxury item that wasn't really needed in non extreme racing applications and having better 5 10 and 15 micron filtering efficiency does reduce engine where further so that's really what matters the mos. although I do wish you would have lowered the price by a dollar even then it's still the cheapest ultra high filtering efficiency filter you can buy and it has metal caps and a strong core so I wouldn't be afraid. Besides more expensive oil filters don't even have wire backing yet people still think they're better.

[@bobby1970]

@@jerryjeromehawkins1712 Pennzoil Platinum is very good, but Quaker State Full Synthetic has a higher oil film strength of over 150,000 psi. Oil film strength is the most important factor of a motor oil.

As much as I hate to admit it, the Fram Titanium filter is actually a pretty damn good filter. My stubborn butt will stick with my Ford Motorsports filter, but the Fram...damn...

[@carlovanrijk4039]

highrzr, I’m currently running the Fram Titanium filter with the Kirkland (Costco) brand 0W -20 full synthetic in my ‘17 Civic. I’m confident it will hold up just fine, for a 7K OCI.

[@TheBandit7613]

How is it good? Nice exterior paint? We are missing the most important info. The filter's efficiency at blocking damaging particles.

[@FordBossMe]

I don't understand what your dilemma is here Chris because it seems like you want to keep leaving these little negative comments if you want to know that s*** so much go do the research and cut the s*** open yourself and then you'll find out real quick I mean I'm not trying to be a dick head to you here but every comment that you're leaving is negative now but you're not willing to do any research on your own

[@FordBossMe]

Pull up the f****** charge for the Fram filter and figure out what the efficiency is in compared to other ones I mean I don't have some kind of magic ball to pull out of my ass and just spit that stuff out

[@FordBossMe]

My video don't get directed by you or dictated by you and I said in the beginning of all three videos that I made today let's break them down and look at the quality of how they were made specifically stated Ho Lee fuk man

[@JF-jm3nb]

I've been using for a while Fram ultra synthetic with pennzoil Ultra platinum in my Mazda 5 2010 and very satisfied. I've found at Napa Canada a special for the napa gold filter made by manns and hummel quiet good also. For my escape 2018 titanium Mobil 1 with Pennzoil ultra platinum for now is the perfect mix

[@Brian_195]

Pennzoil Ultra Platinum is also my top oil choice. I’ve always used it in my 2019 F-150 5.0L Coyote.

[@youngb1ood]

Fram ultra synthetic + pennzoil platinum full synthetic for me. 10000km oil changes.

[@Brian_195]

@@youngb1ood I change mine every 5K just to be extra cautious.

[@mopar0IIII0jeep]

I use the same combo BUT I run the Pennzoil platinum for 5k and I run the Fram ultra for 10k. Both of my vehicles have cartridge filters so I was able to easily inspect the filter media during an oil change. At 5k the filter looked almost like new with no build up trapped in the pleats so I feel comfortable using the filter for 2 oci's.

[@musicfashionstyle4251]

Can you tell us that. Which one is the best oli filter.

[@FordBossMe]

Honestly at the end of the day the original equipment filter is going to be the best safest one to use that came on the vehicle from the dealership or from the factory The problem that nobody pays attention to is the fact that you have to make sure the aftermarket filter bypass rate is the same as the original equipment or better

[@Quis85]

My 06 h3 hummer. Only use to use fram T. But since I've started using RP. I also use there filters as well. And maybe they heard you or seen your video. Because mine didn't look like what you showed. The treads were whatever normal is lol. Nevertheless I'll continue using Fram T and RP filter. Gold they don't always have at local shop. But great over view.

[@joeclarke9782]

Very interesting. Since people would more tend to muscle the filter on the car I would recommend the beefier threads. And, after someone over tightens the can its nice to to have a tough can and plate that will take the extra force to yank it off. This video explains why some filters crushed so easily when trying to remove.

Only oil filter I use is Purolator Boss oil filters' Great Quality Filter"

[@KBFishing-xl1jw]

Nice breakout

[@TheBandit7613]

The micron rating of the material is what matters. What size particles are caught in the filter? Too small and the filter clogs fast, to big and too much dirt is allowed thru.

[@FordBossMe]

They are all about the same ballpark I don't get wrapped up in all that stuff it's nonsense

[@rymat1427]

One time when I change my oil I could not get the K n N filter off. I tried putting a screwdriver through it and didnt even dent!

[@tomriggs3926]

I'll wager Fram made all of the filters, with the flat bypass spring. Think about it there likely isn't a factory for every brand of filter. Forty years ago I sold Napa parts, Wix made their filters. Later I sold Wix filters for a truck parts wholesaler. Wix was the largest filter mfg, at the time. Then there were Baldwin, Purolator, Fram, and Hastings. K&N came along with their Hi-Perf air filters. However, those oil filters look strikingly similar to the Fram & Wix. Hmm
