BS, they don't WANT to get any other filter.

Get one fast, that fram really is a POS. Actually, I'd return it and just use a K&N from autozone/advance auto.
What's wrong with Fram??

I change my oil almost once a month. That is, I change my engine oil and oil filter before every track day. I use a Fram filter with Redline Oil. It isn't that bad is it?

Do a google search for oil filter tests, you'll see how the fram is made and why it's not as good as other choices.

The construction is bad, the filtering media is poor, the bypass valve is not the proper tension.. we could go on and on. A special filter was developed for the S2000 for a reason
