Ok..... once again I'm not reading ANYTHING, I'm talking about a picture..... not reading test material.
Im trying to figure the significance of that PICTURE comparision. If you're telling me you can "see quality" in that picture please explain because what most people will see at glance in that picture is two filters and the main difference in them is the spring style on the top of the filter and the diameter of a yellow ring............ how can you "see" the quality of the filtration material by that picture.
Looking at the picture what exactly is suppose to be standing out that makes the amsoil filter better from a glance.

but a simple glance at something tells you nothing. you need empirical data. you need to make sure your control and test groups are appropriately selected via randomization, and that the groups are sufficiently diverse in their points of origin. then you need to make sure that every test you run on all the filters is done under the most exacting conditions possible.
simply because something LOOKS better doesnt mean it IS.
