Filter element is $7 (a third of a cent per mile). If it lasted longer than 2000 miles I'd probably change it anyway because I'd figure it had a hole in it. You might get every particulate out of WVO today, but tomorrow it will have regenerated more particulates just by being in contact with air, esp if heated.

Oil filtered through a cent is about 1/2 microns. How about that 5 micron filter lasting 20,000 miles? Cleaner the oil = better flow, better fogging at injectors, less maintainance, better performance, etc., etc., etc., But like Henry said, if someones happy with their process, Great.
