I have a Mann W917 next to a Fram PH2865A sitting on my bench right now. Both are cut open all the way around about 3/4 inch up from the bottom threaded plate with the guts revealed. The case of the Mann does indeed feel stronger. Everything inside the filters looks much much higher quality in the Mann. Side by side, the Fram, IMHO, appears to be junk. A similar comparison might be comparing a Volvo 240 to a Chevy Vega or a Ford Pinto.
