Any oil filter is fine, more or less. They will all filter acceptably, though some have better construction than others. I suggest reading this post from the general information thread, which should tell you all you need to know. If you have questions that aren't answered, please feel free to post them in this thread. :)

I use Bosch Premium filters with Mobil 1 full synthetic. In my experience Bosch Filters do the best job.

Do NOT buy a Fram filter. They use cardboard in the construction of the filter. Not good.

Wix, Bosch and Purolater (higher end) are good filters. IMO, you get what you pay for when it comes to stuff like this.
