Race Flow Performance Oil Filters - Washable Oil Filter?

[norebo]

This was given to me by my friend, I don't know if this product is okay. Ano po ang masasabi nyo, hindi po kaya makasira ito sa engine? Thank you.

Race Flow Performance Oil Filters[SIZE=3]Developed for high-performance racing motors, race-proven design provides superior protection for your vehicle. And best of all, this may be the last oil filter you ever buy.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=3]Prolong your engine’s life by keeping its lifeblood—oil—clean and filtered. The medical-grade, stainless-steel element screens more contaminates and allows 7 times more flow than traditional paper filters. “One Pass” technology means that oil never bypasses the filter—your motor receives 100% filtered oil 100% of the time. This ensures longer engine life and twice the driving mileage between oil changes. (*See notes below)[/SIZE]

Features:

• Our Race Flow Oil Filter is the last oil filter you’ll ever buy—it’s reusable and features a Lifetime Warranty
• They're environmentally friendly! Old canister oil filters have to be thrown away in the trash and pollute the earth; these have no filter to dispose of.
• The filter housing is constructed of 6061-T6 billet aluminum that's been polished to an eye-wincing gleam
• Increase your oil change intervals from 3000 to 7000 miles: The Filter pays for itself!
• Machined finger grips allow the filter to be removed by hand—no clumsy filter wrench needed
• Our Oil Filters provides a new thread adaptor, at no charge, so you can swap your filter to a new vehicle (see note)
• Our Oil Filter is easily cleaned with off-the-shelf solvents like carburetor and brake cleaners
• 100% of your engine’s oil is filtered 100% of the time—“One Pass” technology eliminates the bypass valves found on traditional filters
• Our Oil Filter's reusable element is made from laser-cut, medical-grade T304 stainless steel
• Perfect for Turbo Applications where oil pressure and volume can cause early breakdown with the interval moving parts in the turbo.
• Environmentally friendly—never toss another oil-soaked filter in the trash
• Our Oil Filters are put to the test everyday in the grueling world of NASCAR, Toyota, Formula One and off-road racing
• Our Oil Filter does not void your vehicle’s warranty

* Notes: Less pleats than paper filter (too many pleats can end up restricting oil flow). Additional flow rate can help to increase oil pressure (but not beyond reasonable limits). Typical filtering is 50% 10 microns, 70% at 20 microns, 97% at 30 microns, and 99% at 40 microns. Our Oil Filters have 16 inlet holes for increased flow (Fram has 6, AcDelco 12, and Champion & Wick have 6).

Interesting.

This is similar if not a dead ringer for Trufilter.

How does it perform?

I'm really interested if it performs as claimed.

No! Actually Ive been using this for more than a year now, at first I was hesitant to buy but I bought one anyway. My honda runs smoother and much quiter on engine. Cost... $75.00 + shipping.

Sir v6dreamer you're right Toga, so you've tried it already? and have been using it until now? Sir my question is "is it okay to use this product? will it not damage the engine later on? Thanks a lot for the info.

So how can it be environmentally friendly if you still throw away used oil? The advertisement does not mention how much flow there is, what micron rating the filter is set to, or what type of oil it filters (diesel or gasoline engine oils are different), etc.

sir ghosthunter, sabi dun sa item #7 nun features nya "Our Oil Filter is easily cleaned with off-the-shelf solvents like carburetor and brake cleaners"

[recklus]

di kaya mahirap maglinis ng oil? kung tayo lang maglilinis kaya ba malinis kahit yung small particles?

[raine]

hindi naman siya mahirap linisin as my experience sa mga katulad niyang mga filters kasi karamihan sa Aircraft engine filters ganyan ang gamit, medyo ibabad mo lang sandali sa solvent at matutunaw na ang mga contaminants ng filter, ang inaalis lang naman kasi ng filter ay yung mga foreign particles sa oil like metal chips. and ang oil wala naman magagawa ang filter dito para maprevent niyang magitim ito

[mikbik]

uyy!!! im planning to get one of this and have it a try.

[Josh0027]

the question is what kind of solvent does it use? may guarantee ba na yung residue ng solvent hindi magstay sa filter? kung may matira? eh di papasok yan sa internals ng engine... solvent residue.

for me i'd stick with a little or more of 200 bucks of oil filter per change oil.

More than a year now and no problem at all. Also cleaning is easy as 1 2 3 unscrew the main housing to the revolver inlet, remove the stainless filter media spray it w/ carb cleaner wiped with cloth (non lint) re-assemble and your on the go. The filter is similar to the K&N filter w/ million mile warranty.

kaya after linisin masmaganda blow dry and then a few minutes na air dry. at ang procedure lang pwedeng ibigay but the quality ay nasa gumagawa na.
were using MEK at it easily evaporate kaya walang natitira, as what the thread starter said carburator or brake cleaner.
