To demonstrate FilterMAG's effectiveness, Westech Performance Group In Mira Loma, California was contracted to perform a series of independent tests. This respected test lab is used extensively by the high performance automotive press in the USA and true to form used a fresh 400 Pontiac high performance V8 built by Rock'n'Roll Engineering of Riverside, California. Westech performed two tests.
1. Double filter test - brand new V8 engine
This test pitted FilterMAG against two conventional filters, plumbed in series, on the initial break of the engine. The FilterMAG unit was placed on the second filter, so that all engine oil would be filtered before it was exposed to the FilterMAG. After only 15 minutes of low engine-speed operation (the engine never went more than 2,500 rpm) significant amounts of steel particles, as small as 2-micron, were collected in the 575-lb magnetic force field on the interior wall of the filter canister that the benefit of the FilterMAG.
Okay, this is us from Raven Wing Performance talking now, not Westech,
This test proves that having a conventional oil filter, alone, is not enough to filter out the harmful metal particles that damage your engine. If not for the FilterMAG on the second (2nd) oil filter, all of those particles would have been returned to damage the engine. And you know what that grit would do inside the engine, don't you? Yeah, it would do the same thing the grit does in the engine of YOUR car every time you start the engine!
Further, this test is significant because these particles were present in a test in which the engine never went above 2,500 RPM. We rev our engines above 2,500 RPM every time we drive. How about you?
Okay, this is us from Raven Wing Performance talking again,
Hopefully what you've picked up from Westech's test is the FilterMAG really works.
We also hope what you've picked up from Westech's Test #1, is that running a conventional oil filter without FilterMAG just isn't enough to really protect your engine.
And hopefully from Westech's Test #2, you understand that FilterMAG has the power to trap, AND HOLD, the "serious accumulation of steel particles"(their description) within the filter canister. This can't be done with common magnets. This is only possible because of FilterMAG's PATENTED technology utilizing amazingly powerful Neodymium Magnets!
2. Single filter test - near new V8 engine
In this test, the dual oil filter test rig was removed allowing oil to flow through the stock oil filter arrangement. In this phase of the test the carburetor and timing were adjusted and several full power dyno pulls were performed for approximately 3 hours of engine operation. After the test session, the oil filter canister was cut open for inspection. The result was a serious accumulation of steel particles in the magnetic force field of FilterMAG.
Conclusion:
These tests show clearly that FilterMAG removes steel particles that conventional paper element filters miss.
This was demonstrated in the first test as the particles captured by FilterMAG passed through the paper filter before being caught. The second test demonstrated that FilterMAG has the magnetic energy required to retain particles against the flow rate of oil encountered in the filter canister and under all normal engine operating conditions.
