Both Moroso & Wix are at 25 (or real close). Supposedly, Moroso's engineers have opined that particles smaller than that cause no damage to the engine and that filters that brag that they go down to 10 microns, or the like, are actually accomplishing nothing. Now don't bash me; I don't know. Yes, I do use a Moroso filter, and I'm sure you can find the Moroso engineer's theories with a bit of Googling....
