I found this out when going from a PH8 size to the larger size. The 97% single pass went from something like 5 micron on the smaller filter to 30 micron on the larger one.
So you better make sure.
I checked with Baldwin, and the efficiency rating is 18 micron (50% efficiency at 18 micron, 98.7% efficiency at 40 micron). These numbers don't seem to be stellar, but I'll try to find the rating of the stock filter.

The area of the media is 42% higher than the stock filter.
