blitz oil filter?? what would a "performance" oil filter do to be honest, the only thing i can think of would be faster cleaning ? but then how would that gain the engine not being funny but you have to weigh up four times the price for actully gains you no what i mean :panic:

I'd change it 4 times as often rather than purchase a really really expensive one

Theres actually a big difference between a cheapo and a good one. By good one, I dont mean a 40 quid filter. As above, a Purflux OEM one is about 5 quid from GSF, best you can get.
As long as you change it regularly, itll be fine though.

Agreed
Avoid champion filters, the coating is week and they burn through, which is a pain. Happened to me twice
