teh bypass systems are better at removing the acids that build up in the oil and the very fine particles. the full flow is best for removing the bigger particles quickly. That is why on very heavy duty apps like the 361-4 and 413-4 Dodge V8s they have both types of filter. best of woth worlds.
Same with oil bath air cleaners. they remove the finer stuff better than paper and from an SAE test of oil v paper thhe test scores were about the same but what they filtered out was different.
