I've heard that Wix is good without breaking the bank. That's what I gonna use when my first oil change comes due. I've also heard/seen posts on other forums about guys using John deere filters and oil.
Do you know the microns it cleans up to I'm not sure what k&n is but I know after about 500 miles my oil is already black I've heard of people getting 15000 miles with the bypass filter kits is it worth the $245 to get that or should I go with the fleetgaurd filter which is a higher quality but I don't like the idea of spending $45-60 a filter ever oil change
We use amsoil filters here.

K&n oil filter
I've been happy with wix. Don't remember the micron rating on it off top of my head tho. I change filters at 5000 and oil at 10,000
Can't go wrong with Fleetguard

i use FLEETGUARD LF16035 or the new 9028
can't go wrong with them as they are owned by cummins. 45 for an oil filter is cheep instead of 5G for a engine.
you oil turns back because you have an 04.5 or newer engine with the " in cylinder EGR" as some put it but all it really is is an extra injection event. the 03-early 04 didnt have this, my oils stays clean till about 4500 miles. but the cleanliness is not a proper way to tell if oil is still good or not.
with the 9028 i'ma run 10K miles between changes with VPB 5/40 oil.
