Motul Oil Change!
Went to all the bolts, nuts, and v-bands and retightened my whole exhaust.
Zip tied down some loose wires
Tightened up my ALT/PS belt
We also wet sanded, and 2 stage polished my wing after we peeled a lot of the already peeling clear coat, looks much improved though.

164 is for the Evo and mazda.
It's a longer filter than our stock size. It works perfectly though.

The shop i worked at used protec and they always leaked, gaskets came off all the time..I had a brand new one that the gasket came off when I went to lube it haha
Now I work for a place that sells protec and wix, we've been selling less protec filters. Customers are buying acdelco, wix or motorcraft...we have a cut up protec in the office and the Insides are so cheap and badly made. none of the employees use protec on their personal cars haha
Shops only use them because when bought in bulk they are like a $1 each so they can do cheap oil change specials
I use wix when I don't have oem
the last five or so oem filters I used didn't leak one drop over 5k mile interval
