What brand oil filter for racing
 

I did a search of s2ki and found some different threads on oil filters. After reading one article, it said that for high performance applications, oil flow is just as important as filtration.

So I was wondering, for high performance driving (auto-x, track days, etc.) what brand oil filter do you use? Do you oversize at all?

Thanks for your input!

Stock PCX or Mobil1 (P/N: M-104) depending on local availability.

Never use a oversized Mobil1 M107, they are well known for blowing out the seal and leaking huge amounts of oil/catching fire and possibly destroying the engine.

Stock... why anything else?
:rolleyes:

I use K&N oil filters. Very well make and comes with a nut on the end for tightening/removing and a hole for safety wire.

K&N is a good flowing filter, but it slightly compromises filtration; vice versa in regards to Mobil 1 and Purolator PureOne filters. THe only thing I dislike is that it uses nitrile ADBV (anti-drainback valve) which will harden greater than silicone ADBV when exposed to extreme temperature, mainly heat. For the price of K&N, they should at least build with silicone ADBV. I highly praise the built quality, strength, and solidness. If you are using K&N or any other oil filters, inspect it after every race event.

The stock PCX filter is remarkably good. It was engineered specifically for the S2000 motor's high pressure and flow rates. That's all I ever used on my S2K that saw buttloads of track time.

I use the stock oil filter.

What brand and viscosity of oil is everyone running on track?

Honda recommended dyno oil until 10k miles. I'm just past 10k, so I'm wondering if I should make a switch to synthetic.

spoon bro, spoon.
