Yes. if you change oil that regularly a non oe one will be ok. I know some people change the oil every 3000 mile but only change the filter every 2nd change as 3000k is nothing, unless its doing a lot of trackwork and launches...

Can't remember the last time I used an actual Subaru filter. I normally use the UFI ones from Opie Oils. It would be interesting to know who actually makes the Subaru filter, could well be the same supplier as Blueprint!
