All of you who begin using the larger filter:--->Can you record your PSI with the smaller filter?

Then with the larger filter.

Examples
1. Cold Start up
2. Idle psi @ operating temp in park
3. Idle psi @ operating temp in drive with brake in
4. Cruising @ operating temp between 60-70 mph.

A few have recorded a slight psi drop.

I know the Larger filter for the FU XG2

I didn't take any before and after pics but going from 6qts PUP 0w40 and 1qt 5w30 with a Wix XP 57060 (smaller size filter) to 7 qts RL 5w30 and a RP 20-820 (larger size filter) I see no appreciable difference in oil pressure. If its any different, its 1-2psi lower at most.

I should probably know this, but which one is bigger 20-820 or 10-48? And you can use the larger one on the later years right?

Yep the RP 20-820 is the larger filter ,and yes it fits just fine with the 2013+ models with the electronic steering actuator.

I'll post a picture of both side by side in a few minutes. ..

Not much meat on those......

You DID kill em' though.
From 50 yards still has enough Kinetic Energy to travel completely through a Brand New Block target .
Not bad , that's enough to complete a pass through on two live deer unless you hit the shoulder bone

The Bow is a PSE EVO MAX with 80 lb limbs & set @ 80 lbs . Shooting @ 306 fps .
Arrows are Easton FMJ with 100 grain field points total arrow weight 546 grains c08ac668c34555b6b1bf86083ebdc43a.jpg
