There was some good information shared on here on standard vs racing. You give up a lot of filtration for flow when running the racing versions. Seems the non-R's are the way to go but i'll have to look into it more.

Another vote for WIX as well.

If your concerned about the micron size in the 1061 "R" go with the stndard 1061.
