          I've always used OE filters in my cars and never had a problem.

                      An oil filter is an oil filter, there's no difference lol.

                        I'm pretty sure he's not manufacturing his own OIL FILTERS.

                        I remember reading in some oil filter shootout a while back that Purolator was the best. I just use OEM from the dealer.

                                Napa filters are manufactured by Wix. I use either or occasionally Purolator if they sell them where I am buying oil. NEVER Fram or Pennzoil- Both are the same.

                                Here is the oil filter study:
