I do understand that bigger filters will filter better, but I'm thinking that there is a point where it won't matter how much bigger you go. At what point does the filtering efficiency plateau? I think the R&D department at Toyota would've looked into this when designing their oil filters (I hope, at least).

Anyway, I'm very interested to find out what your test results are.

I did an oil change yesterday. In any way, will this be applicable to other vehicle makes like volkswagen perhaps. It might not work since it has different setup with its VW parts. Still wanna ask...

Yeah mine fit too, even with a sandwich cooler adapter making it about 1 inch longer.
