 I'm not saying you don't need, but I don't think it's as big a help as people make it out to be because, you know, auto repair to me and maintenance to me is a balance. It's looking at everything, considering everything, and trying to be equal. Don't focus solely on the engine and ignore the transmission and the rest of the driveline fluids. You know, you've got to look at the entire car and consider the entire car. Buy a conventional filter. Let it meet OE spec. Make it good quality.
