The Wix is the better filter by far. If you race, the 51515R is rated at about 28 gpm of oil flow before bypass, (larger filtering media, stops the big stuff) and the street 51515 filter is only 7 or 9 gpm.

The Wix is the better filter by far. how can you say the Wix is the best when at a factory in the city i live in, Wix, Fram, Toyota Genuine & Purolator are all made in the same factory with the same parts? i'm not saying they make every filter for all applications, but the make a large range & it's just the last stage when they get Screenprinted is the brand for which box they get shipped off in. some filters were slightly different in construction but i was getting HP1 Fram filters that had accidentally had Toyota Genuine Screenprinting on them.

While I don't know who makes the Toyota filter, the other 3 are most definitely not the same, and not made in the same plant.

I was using the 090 and the Wix #51068 on my Diplomat with headers and 90 degree adapter,until I did a filter relocation. Now I use the huge Baldwin BT237.

Oil filters are not basically the same internally. There is a lot of difference inside if you have ever looked at the posts of them broken open. Bingo. Cut open a few, or look for images in the Oil Filter forum at BITOG. Lots of pics of open filters there. Wix, Fram, and Purolator are very different, construction-wise.
