I use Honda OEM and get my oil from there too. I was actually pretty surprised at the price the first time I got it all there... 17 or 18$... not too bad I don't think.

K&N works best for me. I typically love their products so when I slip it into my civic when Im doing an oil change I know the product is going to be radical!
