Seems to have a stronger additive package. Thats fine for the chemistry at a 15,000 mile change interval, but the wear metals will be accumulating, and perhaps 15,000 mile drain intervals are not good from a wear metal point of view and long term engine life.
Full flow oil filters do not remove wear metals; which are too small to get removed. But these particles can be large enough to cause wear in the parts of the engine that have very thin or boundary layer lubrication, such as sprockets, chains, cams, lifters, pistons, rings and cylinder walls. The amount of wear metals in a new engine is VERY high.
