I've been trying to research oil filters. Which one holds the most pressure? some people were telling me napa gold?

 

napa gold and purolator pure 1 are considered the best filters on the market that are readily availible. They both have a great constuction with the best filtration.

Not sure what you mean by "holds the most pressure"?? they both will probably hold several hundred psi before they burst.

If you are saying wich one will give you more pressure on your gauge, then the answer would be neither. You can use the super small OEM honda filter for "more pressure", but the only reason you will get more pressure is becasue the filter will have increased resistance (smaller case,ports,filter element), giving you a increase at your gauge (which is usuallly before the filter). If the filter cannot keep up with flow, they have built in bypass valves, which is bad, lots of unfiltered oil going to the motor. The only plus side to this is that you get faster oil pressure than a bigger filter on start-up

I personally run NAPA GOLD 1344 which is LARGER than the standard honda filter 1334.

Go to bobs the oil guy and read for a few weeks.....

 

What about K&N? I use K&N oil filter on my bike because its easy to remove since they weld a nut on the end of the filters.

 

t1 recommends k&n, a few people say it raises oil pressure a bit, and it doesn't drop at the end of the quarter like other filters do.

 

thats exactly what i read recently.....

 

For example people say using FRAM oil filters actually filter too well and people were seeing a 10 psi drop in oil pressure.

 

Well all oil filters have an oil pressure bypass point... IE if the pressure is above a certain amount it will not filter the oil... it just recirculates it... as I remember (although I'm def not an expert) the Bosch filters have a much higher bypass pressure (60psi as opposed to like 10-30 or so psi for most)...

Do some searching you should be able to find out for sure.
