Friends don't let friends use Fram oil filters (or any products by Fram)
Only problem is OEM now means Honeywell, which makes Fram filters lol

It's funny to me when "car guys" don't already know this. I've known this since I was 12, I'm almost 40 now. (yikes).
Wix used to have a counter display for auto parts stores that had one of their filters cut open next to a Fram cut open.
Of course I've already passed this knowledge onto my son. So he won't be drinking any orange kool-aid

those look sick, but 99 bucks? then I'm guessing you change out the inner cartrage? but even still that's 15 bucks. Seems a little overkill for a street car
I was using Fram for awhile, but recently switched over to Bosch. Not sure how much better they are, but they are priced similarly

I normally use the K&N filters as well. I like that they have the hex nut type thing on the bottom which helps with my motorcycle and it also has a couple holes for safety wire (required for racing on a track).

(sorry if that didn't make sense, I'm really light headed from giving blood, not eating, and throwing up like crazy right after. It's been about 30 hours since Ive eaten.
