Some guy on the MR2 forums did this same experiment a few years ago, but he actually pulled the filter element out of each one so you could see how much was in there. The Bosch was almost identical to the TRD which cost 3x as much.
K&N & mobil 1 are a frickin rip off at $10 a piece

Just got a free Bosch filter with the purchase of oil. Glad to see it as one that is better built.

it was a toyota forum so no "honduh" filters were tested lol..
I'd imagine toyota/ TRD is just as good as Honda OEM though, at least in regards to oil filters. So Bosch would be pretty close to Honda.
