Got any proof or facts to back that up, and I don't mean marketing blurb.

True: without taking a can-opener to the filters you cannot say which is better or worse. Bar cost. Sometimes even identical brand filters vary internally when they switch to a different supplier.

Anyhoo my list of non-Subaru filters in no particular order:

Unipart
Crossland
Blueprint
Mann

I've not took a can opener too any of them - couldn't be arsed But experience with the cartridge filters on other makes of cars generally shows they aren't bad in terms of filter media and construction.

Mazda RX8 oil filters for me. Made by the same manufacturer as the old subaru black ones (Roki) and have the same bypass pressure (which non of the k&n, blueprint etc do)
