WIX oil filter the best? Is the WIX 51069R Engine Oil Filter the best made and best quality oil filter for a 96 Camaro z28? After some research I believe this may be the best filter out there, I would like to hear some other opinions!
Other filters I would consider are:
K&N
Napa Gold
Some people swear by the Mobil 1 and other say it is a total rip off. The Wix racing filter seems to have all of the best features inside of it.

Yeah wix makes napa gold filters. I always go with wix on both my cars. I wouldn't go so far as to say they are the BEST, I don't know enough to say either-or. But they're well priced (I think about half of M1 or K&N filters) and there's plenty of info in bobistheoilguy proving that they're a well made, quality filter.

The Napa 1069 is a WIX 51069
Napa sells the WIX 51069R under the NAPA gold line of filters, but it still says WIX on it.

The Wix R filters do offer more flow and you might see more oil pressure, but the filter media is usually not as fine as the regular filter (hence their warning that the R filters are for racing only and may void manufacturer's warranty if used on a street car).
