Message	Your post contained a lot of guessing, hearsay and non-factual information. Once you remove all the BS, I get this: -Everyone that sees it, is like "hey cool" Nobody has posted saying they killed their engine using a clean stock fuel filter. This thing on the other hand looks cheap. It has a very small filtering area compared to stock and I don't see how it would be able to handle a lot of flow at WOT. Without having any specs handy saying that it's better than stock I wouldn't put it on my car.
