I believe in brand too. Nike shoes make you jump higher. Drinking Coke makes you more popular. TRD stickers are good for 3-5 hp each.

you are probably just paying for the name but when in doubt the stock Toyota oil filter is always best. I have been using the Celica oil filter for some time...its a bit larger, more surface area is good.

At the moment i have a TRD one as i was worried about clearance issues with the mocal sandwich plate but there is plenty of room. Might see if i can grab a TRD filter for the Celica from Matt.
Damn you and your admin powers...damn you!
