BTT: Thanks for doing the research for me about the royal purple sulfur thing, dvldoc. I was looking for the stuff in evangelista, makati, in mayo parts, as speedyfix said may be available (from another thread). They don't have it anymore. So I guess I'll be getting it from philshopping then pick it up in their office.

I was also canvassing for purolator filters in ACE Hardware in MOA, both for the Altis (Vic C-110) and Advanture (gas, Vic C-415). Both filters the salesguy gave me don't have the "Made in ___" print on the filter itself, but I did see it in their carton packaging (Fairfield something...). Are these still fakes?
I've checked those purolators at MOA as well, I have pics posted here in the first pages, seems like fake because the quality of material and the prnting as so faded and IMO not well crafted. Anyway using one for 2,000 kms and the opening it up may yield good data for us. care to do the honors sir? hehe

BTW, I checked my oil after 2,000kms and using Bosch oil filter. All I can say is it's still good and there is no sandy feeling of the oil compared to when I'm using Vic filters. I am really amazed by how clean the oil feels. Excellent!
