If you use a larger than stock oil filter it will flow more oil. I've been using Baldwin filters on my S for just under 100k miles. I go 15k miles on the filter(7500 miles on the oil) and my uoa's are great for this engine.
Here are some pic's of how large this filter is next to a stock filter off of a '08 C/R and a Wix/Napa filter.

I've used both the B7042 and B202 filters(same size but has a different by-pass pressure setting)

Or it was full of bearing material and couldn't flow at all... Of course that would make it higher pressure until the bypass valve opened.

Well I checked the filter and no metal shavings were in it.. Motor still sounds healthy.. If she spins a rod bearing oh well..
