I wouldn't worry about it unless the new filter shows signs of bulging due to too much pressure. You can check that by looking at the flat spot on the top (closed) end. That flat spot is there for a reason. If it's rounded or bulged out, you're getting to much pressure to it. That's usually caused by the pressure regulating valve. You should be able to take off your old used filter and set it upside down on a flat surface. If it rolls over, it's been exposed to too much pressure which can cause rupture or gasket failure.
