size diff. between HAMP filter and RYCO Filter.

[destrukshn]

the first one, must be a old type honda filter.
the newer ones is like the bottom. small, it's been the small one for at least 4 years now.

[bennjamin]

could it be internals of the filter , rather than SIZE ? IE one flows better than other type etc

yeah im just wondering what the gains of using the hamp filter would be..

even if it did help oil pressure increase.. wat would that do ??

[ZeForce]

The CEO of Spoon recommends using a smaller oil filter to increase oil pressure and stop it from fluctuating in the best motoring video about the ITR

i guess having a more constant oil pressure is always better.
lol.

my *problem* was that once i installed the 19 row oil cooler, the oil cooler lines, the oil filter reolocator, my peak oil pressure dropped to 70-75PSI above 3000rpm... wheras it sat on 80-82PSI prior to the installation.

by fitting the newer smalll type of oil filter, i improved it back upto around 79-80PSI peak oil pressure.

well, compared to the "old type honda filter", the "new small type" improves oil pressure.

and FYI - if you buy a oil filter for a pre 2000 Honda at most auto parts stores, you get a Z79A or equiv. from the dude behind the counter, which is the "old type honda filter"...

are HAMP filters smaller than the oem honda filters?

[tinkerbell]

they are smaller than the "old style" honda filters...



on the right = "old style"
on the left = HAMP filter

[destrukshn]

well as long as you buy a genuine honda filter, it's the same size.
from the 1980's model til current, most of em will use the same filter.

so i don't understand why they would give you such a big filter when they can just give you the small one.
since it's all the same.

[.::F[L]Y::.]

isnt there 2 HAMP styles? the short and stubby one and the tall and thin one?

[T-onedc2]

they (hamp) are smaller than the "old style" honda filters...



on the right = "old style"
on the left = HAMP filter

Resurrect an old thread

So seeing as I use a Ryco Z79A, is there smaller filter used on another honda which will fit my B18C?
