I think it is a waste to spend big money on oil filters!!! I use SuperTech filters unless they are all out then I use either AutoZone or Advanced AutoParts generic unless STP is on sale.$2.50 is my limit for an oil filter on my car. The filter on my 2003 Camry is so small I would not want to pack too much restrictive media inthe can! I think flow is more important then beta rateing. If I had my way I would have a stainless steel mesh screen like the old Volkswagons Bugs had. I do wish though that more companies but a nut on the end of the can like K&N does. I am considering use them just for the ease of filter removal.The only thing I hate about my Toyota is how ward it is to remove the filter.
