Just go to the dealer and ask for a 1090. (5281090 part#) it will be the best 4.50 + tax you will ever spend

IIRC the FRAM high mileage oil filters use a plastic cage that holds an oil additive in the path of the oil flow, which will actually restrict the flow.

IMO it is probably better to use high mileage oil and a regular filter if you want to use the high mileage additives.
