Fram straight-up sucks...I compared it to the pure one and the K&N filters (discoloration and smell tests as well as cutting the things apart) and I have to say I will only use K&N. As far as oil goes I used Valvoline full synthetic and nothing else. Although if your engine is burning oil I wouldn't recommend synthetic - it leaks through quicker.
