While I wouldn't recommend any of our customers do 25k miles, 10k oil changes with the Amsoil full synthetic and filter on a street driven car aren't too crazy. On a car that is tracked we'd knock that down to about 3k-5k miles.

No oofense, but viscosity breakdown will occur long before 25k miles. 10k with synthetic is cool, Amsoil is pushing it with their recommendation. If tracking a car I would change it long before 3k as well. Nothing special about an Amsoil filter that Farm, Purolator or even the Wal Mart brand do not have. 25k filtration, no way man.
