[QUOTE="oldbmwfan, post: 15618761, member: 182294"] The torque spec for the oil filter has nothing to do with oil consumption and everything to do with the fact that in testing, the oil filters would literally vibrate loose and cause a massive oil leak because the flat plane (not "cross plain") engine is a bitch for secondary vibrations (this is exacerbated in a large-displacement, long-stroke engine like the Voodoo). Tightening your oil filter won't keep oil from blowing by into the cylinders, if that is happening (which is has to in order for the engine to consume oil under load). [/QUOTE]
