This is where my thoughts make me think there is less flow volume due to the smaller amount of holes in the Mobil1 filter. But is it enough to make a difference or to be a problem?

I haven't had a single problem with the Mobil 1 filters yet and I will keep using them as long as they are made. The Delco filter I took off of my '16 just didn't seem to have the same level of quality as the Mobil 1 does. I did put Valvoline synthetic 5W30 in the '16 when I changed it 3 weeks ago.

I stuck with the PF64 for now. Still have a mobil 1 laying around though.
