Oil filter

Anyone know of an oil filter that is proven to be better than the stock Honda filter?

Not sure how one could find out that info.
I am running the Honda filter and also I have the filter magnet that I got from Griots. I am sure it is doing a good job. That thing is s strong, I have to pry it off the old filter with a screwdriver.

I think on a past site some guy actually took apart several oil filters and measured their components ................I think his x-box must have been down also..

Hey Dude I'm running a magnetic drain plug and K&N oil filter. Do you think that is a hot set up to wrap a magnet around the oil filter it seems to me that might plug the filter with metal particles. If that should happen OH BOY!

Frettin' over so much nonsense.

Any filter that fits should be sufficient, as long as it's changed often enough.......

Don, you know as well as I do that oil filter technology has pretty much been perfected.
