Hope this helps

I would tell you to use the FS2500 or Oil Guard. I personally use the FS and love it, but the filter cost is twice the Oil Guard units. I use it mainly for soot removal and increased longetivity, however, I do extend my OCI. I run 10K mile intervals with no worries. Don't worry about shearing, it is overblown by most people. Your oil will be sheared in as little as 1500 miles!! I doubt many people change it that often. Worry about soot levels and the damage they do instead. Watch the videos at FS2500.com and see for yourself. All the filter variations are effective to a degree. Shop on price if you want to and be comfortable with your purchase. Hell, even buy a TP unit like Motor Guard if you want, just be prepared to change the TP every 1K miles!!
Good Luck
