  • About 30% cheaper
  • Most people think the bypass kit looks better
  • Permits installation of a filter with a smaller micron rating
  • Theoretically it could reduce the risk of the filter clogging, e.g., if you are switching from non-detergent to detergent oil and are worried about lifting sludge into suspension
