I've used the LN spin-on adapter since it came out with the Napa Gold filter. Far better oil filtration and eliminates the factory bypass. I also installed the LN magnetic oil drain plug to look for ferrous material at every oil change.

1. No by-pass under any conditions
2. 30-35% finer media pore diameter than OEM style filters
3. Spin on filters, becuase they are so widely used, are a fraction of the cost of the OEM style filter
