I'm curious... Why the specific inquiry about these particular filters? Quality and capacity has been covered before as others have said and I know you've seen the threads. But they don't address these particular filters. So I'm just wondering what it is that is making you so inquisitive about these.

Wix 51333 v. 51773 has never been addressed although quality v. capacity has. I guess the oil/filter interest is less here lol :x

Better beta 21 v. 32
Better by-pass PSI 30 v. 8 - 11
Better burst PSI 300 v. 290
