Default high volume pump and oil filter choice
After adding a high volume oil pump, has anyone gone to a higher flowrate filter or found one? Or is the standard filter fine with the additional flowrate?

With all the cars we've worked on, I've never seen a filter have a negative effect on volume or pressure. I would think any good name brand filter will work fine for you.
