I'm using the Mazda filters now but I never understood why people insist that the OEM filter for any car is the best, yet these filter companies who all they do is make filters aren't as good.. What about the Purolator Pure One? I used to use nothing but those.

lol thats why I use the K&N, I like the fact that you can get a socket or wrench on it! 
ratchet on any oil filter.
And still be cheaper then the K&N.
