Thoughts on the denso air filter

Huy guys. Like title says any thoughts on the the denso air filter? Now first let me say that I only use OEM filters ect. Now I know that the OEM Toyota ones are denso but I am referring to the one that is straight up denso. The stealer wanted 26.98 befo taxes. I found the straight up denso on rock auto for 15.89 shipped. It looks identical and it just doesn't say Toyota / denso. Truck seams to have a little more pep at take off and run smoother. It dos how ever move from side to side just a little more in the housing and that's where I am a little concerned. So my question is any thoughts and has anyone else use them ?

 

I once bought an A/C Delco air filter for an '06 Toyota Avalon that was identical to the one sold at the local Toyota dealer. Exact same filter.

 

Afe pro dry s air filter.

 

Yeah I worked at Auto Zone part time a while back and they sell STP that looked identical Never tryed it. I am a true beleave in OEM parts. On that note A C Delco is OEM for GM. Cannot be all that bad

 

I priced an oem coolant pump from toyota...$400
I cross referenced some numbers and found a bosch part for about $120.


Same exact #when all was done.

Theres only so many manufacturers of things....boxes are easy to have cut and printed tho.

 

That is so true. But yeah the mark up is just out there from some of these companies.

 

So no one has any personal experience with?

 

Overthinking it. Just change as required don't worry about the brand

 

I use denso filters and they work fine, practically OEM with put that expensive “toyota” name on it

 

Denso, fram will all do its job. I personally use AFE ProDry.

 

That's exactly what I was thinking. Thank you for the reply I appreciate feed back!
