Ok, let say the housing is brand new and so is the oil. How often is it expected for the bypass pop? The other parameters are the same as my previous post.

The majority of engines that can't be saved end up terminally ill due to wear and other issues associated with collateral damages stemming from material laden oil.

The primary failure is seldom what keeps the engine from being resurrected after failure. The secondary collateral damages are what open the wallet far and wide.
The way I read this and correct me if I'm wrong is that the "debris" would be engine parts that could fail which then could act as collateral damage to other more vital engine parts. If and/or when this happens, it could mean the difference of being able to save and repair the engine or having to start from scratch.

I sense another patent in the works...OBG(oil bypass guardian) as a backup to the IMS guardian which is a backup to the IMS retrofit.

Can't answer that question with any accuracy.
Since you are I'm Canada I'd expect most all of your cold start-ups are bypassing the factory filter filter. That's merely an assumption.

Create your own study and share your findings.

Can't answer or won't answer, are not the same thing. Should have just posted your last sentence and be done with it.

Mostly the neverending quest to idiotproof vehicles. Also 20,000 mile recommended oil change intervals.

There are a lot of "experts" on this forum that like to challenge many posters posts. If you are going to challenge their post you'd best post a plausible "backup" based on experience and research not just hearsay and circumstantial evidence. More of you wait for Jake to post so you can disagree or bash him than to contribute to the forum. If you don't like what he is "spewing" then move on to the next topic. GOOD LORD!

This is a technical forum therefore, discussions should be on a technical level. I'm not looking to rip apart anyones technical posts but a healthy technical discussion should be the normal thing. You guys should visit the 928forum to see how technical debates are done. If you state something that needs some form of data to prove, why hold it back and then go on the defensive when asked? To me that type of reply is advertising and nothing more.
