Found this site again while posting in a K&N thread. It's a really informative site with some good information if you've got time to browse/read. Has a lot of good info on different oil types, oil filters, air filters, etc and their performance.

Good site to bookmark when you're laid up in bed and don't have anything else worth doing.

I just switched to the best oil there is Walmart brand and I just wash the old filter out in cold soapy water and reuse it. No need to change the oil till after 25,000 miles.
