Larger Oil Filters
Anyone tried using a larger oil filter than stock? According to H&A Accessories.com, Honda went to a skinnier oil filter in the current generation Civic. But, the older, fatter filter is still compatible.
yeah I ordered the larger older style OEM honda filters...they are noticably bigger and are the same price,but I havent noticed any difference what so ever in performance or oil cleansliness.

Rep Power: 337 grey uses a larger supertech filter on his car. Bascially a Mobil 1/Bosch filter without the name. Hasn't had any problems yet.
