Single vs. Dual Remote Bypass Filtration System Configurations

Single Remote vs Dual Remote Systems

AMSOIL offers two types of bypass systems: single-remote and dual-remote. The systems are equally efficient, and the only real difference is the full-flow filter’s location.

Single Remote System

The AMSOIL Single-Remote System is convenient to install; it does not require relocating the full-flow filter. It also takes up less space, which is often the biggest issue when installing any bypass system. With the Single-Remote System the oil is diverted from its normal circuit:

  1. From a pressurized oil port
    or
  2. Through a filter adapter/oil filter cap (available for purchase for specific applications)
    The oil is then pumped through the bypass filter and returned to the oil pan. There are two ways to return the oil to the pan:

    1. Drill into either the oil pan or the rocker arm/valve cover to return the oil
      or
    2. Modify an oil filler cap/purchase a replacement oil filler cap from AMSOIL (available for purchase for specific applications)

Dual Remote System

The AMSOIL Dual-Remote System is convenient for servicing filters, placing both the full-flow filter and bypass filter on the same dual-mount. If you have the room in your engine compartment, this is a good option. A spin-on filter adapter fits onto the full-flow filter, through which the oil is both taken and returned. The oil flows through both filters, and the oil returns to the system through the filter adapter.
