How about this? A oil filter prior to the OMP?

Cool How about this? A oil filter prior to the OMP?

I would imagine that the Renesis is seriously sensitive to oil filtration, so why not have some sort of bypass the goes before the oil metering pump to ensure that the very cleanest oil gets injected into the engine.

We see alot of posts that ask about maintenance, oil changes, brand, dino, synthetic but I haven't seen one that really connected the higher mileage RX8's out there with the type of oil filter they use.


What ya think?


lemme clarify this, I know we already have an oil filter but what about a super filtration bypass type of system?
