Filters and filtration aside... Don't you have spare pressure sensors and a free ADC on the Gold Box to monitor and Log fuel Pressure? I seem to remember you showing you had a couple in your drawer, left side, under the computer.

When I looked into it, even most Bosch OEM filters only quoted around 20 Microns.
Maybe they are better in reality, but that's what they were quoting. And as said, even ID struggled to name any suppliers of filters sub 10 microns !
The only one they did was a spin on style at a few hundred dollars each.

Straight from Bosch's website.
"Bosch recommends a 5µ filter and says anything over 35µ can cause injector damage"

I usually just get the cheap summit filter for $60 (or sometimes the $30 ebay variant), the filter itself is replaceable for just a few bucks. Only comes out a few dollars more than the spin on once you factor in fittings to work with the AN line. It would make changing filters easier though.... I just don't have room for a spin-on. Budget racing at its best.

If you go with the summit stuff, be sure to get the pleated filters and not the smaller disc type. The disc style doesn't flow diddly. I couldn't even make 500hp with E85 with one.
like these
These are chinaa $13 SS filters. Similar to the summit pleated ones. I have used them too, but they don't filter as well as the paper/micro glass.

For their car petrol filters...only info I could find here was 20 micron !
Interesting that one is listed as a "microglass" filter....something "new" that Aeromotive have started offering as a multifuel filter for their normal alloy housings.

These were the ones ID recommended....TBH they just look like glorified oil filters at 10x the price.
Probably no different than what you are using.

To add to this, I'd value to seeing it in the RaceRender too.

What about some of the tried and true Fuelab filters? They seem more compact and easier to plumb / mount than the tractor store stuff.

Here is a link to the cim-tek micro glass and other filters. I'd think the micro glass would be best, but I've never had an issue with the cellulose/paper stuff and ethanol.
