I decided to take a chance and do it as well. Ran for 10 minutes with the flush on previously clean oil, and it came out black! I'm on my interval oil as we speak (only driven about 20 miles so far).

Ditto about "lubricating" the new o-ring before screwing the filter housing on. If it is not lubed, it will bind-up while you're tightening it causing the ring to stretch and possibly break.

I have B+G Springs (bought from Drivewire.com for cheap!). It lowered mine about 1.5", maybe a little more. I'm slightly tucking 19" wheels.
