example-[honda,K&N,fram,] because the cheaper ones won't trap as much dirt as the good ones,has something to do with how the filter is made in the inside[where the oil filters through]...

[RoadkillerRyan]

so i shouldnt get one no name brands on ebay for cheap

[pane2k]

yeah man dont try to save 1 or 2 bucks. You get the cheaper ones the chances are they prolly wont last as long and you wind up buying more so in the end your spending just as much neways.
Plus they might cause damage to your engine in the long run, or it wont run as good....
cheap is expensive :)<---and its so true

i work at a oil filter company. Champion Labs. don't worry bout the material. all oil filters are made of good quality paper. probally made on the same line. we make AC DELCO, VALVOLINE, STP, MOTOCRAFT all on the same line just different paint.

There's a man who knows. You pay extra for the name, the product is essentially the same for most major brands. Same applies to car batteries, with the exception of gel cells.

EMGO

JC Whitney always has specials on the EMGO filters.

Buy em 5 at a time or so.

If I bought any other filter It'd probably be the Purolator just because Fram everything is cheap crap.

Go read any of those oil filter studies about the cardboard internals of Fram cheap chit.

I have run STP filters in my machine since new.

The part number is SMO-15 and are like $3.50 at your local auto parts store
