Yes, I drain the oil first, put it in a can for the tip, then unscrew the filter using a chain type grip to unscrew the can without puncturing it.
Once free of the engine oil pours out and the empty catch pan is used to catch that flow and the filter that I put in there quick as a flash.
The new filter goes on empty as it is near impossible to fill it on the bench.
The engine is cranked over until good pressure shows on the gauge before switching the ignition and further cranking to fire.
The pressure does not change during this procedure.
Here is the filter set-up, all Porsche 911 from the 993 engine.
