Default Vararam Baja Filter

With all of the discussions about the effectiveness of the Vararam filter, is everyone talking about the old style or the new Baja filter? The new one is supposed to be much improved. Anyone have comparison experience?

The new Baja filter works great for me. Here's a shot of the filter.



Here's my TB plate after over 1000 miles - very clean.


I just checked this the other day and I'm satisfied it's doing a good job.

Wow Ed, you don't have any oil in that TB?
That's great news for your car!
