Additionally you will have to cut open the spin on for media inspection. No big deal. Just need to understand all the trade offs. In-fact I am going to post all the individual components for sale soon. L&N spin on adapter, L&N accusump adaptor, install tool, accusump, braided line, pressure switch and maybe even the fittings. Not trying rain on your parade but some time info gets garbled in the transmission.

Actually, he is correct as the Wix/NAPA Gold filter he is referring to has a media pore size diameter that is considerably smaller (21 microns) than the OEM Mahle/Mann filter cartridge media (listed at 30 microns); hence the improved filtration comment.
