yeah I have been running the K&N 1002 for the last 4 changes and I too would like to see results on it. Somebody on the forum runs larger filters too so it would be interesting to see if there are any benefits to running a larger filter other then you have to add more oil.
Thanks for putting this together too......I'm sure it will be very much appreciated but all.....
I have a TRD filter that I never used. That thing is huge. I thought about testing it too. I'm guessing an advantage other than more oil might be more filter media surface area and higher flow maybe?

The M1 stock replacement is a M1-102. You mentioned an M1-211 (?)
I've used that filter, and the larger M1-301 (I don't expect any difference between this and the M1-102).
You don't expect any difference in a filter that is almost twice the size? Are you just referring to the material used or that there will not be a difference in its ability to filter?

That looks about the same size as the TRD filter. I'm willing to test as many filters as it takes to get good data. It could get expensive though. I'm happy to pay the 30 dollar testing fee, but maybe if you really want me to test a filter, you can mail it to me so I don't have to pay for everything.

I just got the first Two test kits from Blackstone Labs. I'll change my oil today and start the testing on the Trufilter since that is what it on there now. I plan on putting 1000 miles on each filter per testing period. I'll overnight the sample and they will do the analysis the same day they get it and e-mail me the results so I can post them here.

I went to pick up the M1-301 at autozone and saw the M1-303. I looked at the two side by side and can't see what the difference is. Is the thread pitch different? Anyone know?
