Thank you so much for putting my mind at ease. There are just so many different options for everything now a days I have a hard time keeping track of what is what.

Hey all. I am new to this formum so hello from Syracuse, NY and I apologize in advance if I am discussing a previously discussed question or posting in the wrong place. I have a 2011 Forester 2.5 non - turbo and have always run the napa gold 7712 oil filter due to the specs allowing for a higher oil psi bypass valve within the filter. I was recently given a bunch of napa gold filters and among them were a hand full of napa gold 7055's. As far as I can see the only difference is that the 7055 is a larger oil filter and has a higher spec oil psi bypass valve/spring within the filter. Is it safe to run this filter in place of the 7712? Has anyone had any experience with this? Any advice/guidance would be greatly appreciated.
