Trasko Spin-on filter
http://www.trasko-usa.com/trasko.htm
I was wondering if anyone knew anything about this? I'm thinking about getting it for my 04 Civic [that I am picking up tomorrow yayyyy] but I don't want to spend the money if its not worth it or worse yet, will damage something. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Rep Power: 0 $75 for a oil filter!!!!!!!! Dude your fu<king crazy!!!! Never in my life would I pay that much for an oil filter!!! I have worked at a Lube Shop for 2 years now, and I have never herd or seen anything about that thing!! I read the Oil&Lube News front to back every month!!! The best filters would be either a Wix or K&N!!! The Fram X2 isnt bad, along with Napa Silver, Valvoline.

Rep Power: 0 dude if you use Mobile 1 or anyother synthetic besides Penzoil, your oil is going to stay pretty clean!!!! I have change cars that have gone almost 12,000 miles running Mobile 1 and it still looked and felt better than most regular oils, brand new!!! A filtration system???lol WTF do you think a damn oil FILTER is anyways!!!!! Dude you can buy it if you want, but i will just laugh at ya for spending all that money for some piece of ****!! But you should really take my advice, as I work in the oil and lube industry!!

Rep Power: 280 i dont think using Mobile 1 one your engine will keep the oil any cleaner than if you were using conventional oil. thats not what synthetic oil does.

I know someone who used the Amsoil version of that thing... it doesn't do a whole hell of a lot. All it does is increase the amount of time between oil changes. It doesn't make it any "better" on your engine. You can run an engine on Mobil 1 for a million miles and the internals still meet factory spec (they did the test), how much better do you want?
