Must have something to do with oil viscosity and flow restriction in the filter, though the bypass must be open at WOT at 5000+rpm.

Idle-3500ish is probably my operating range. Just guessing tho', don't have a tach. ENEOS 5w-30/Ultra-8 made the most noise, but still not that bad. Amsoil HP 5w-30/Wix made Amsoil Ea filter was a small improvement. Maybe it was that space wasting Wix bypass valve? Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30/PureOne made an even bigger improvement.
