►Oil filter?◄

[Joshm88]

I've got a Mugen oil filter, anyone know how they perform? Wouldn't surprise me if they are just rebranded Hamp filters!

[Sypherg]

I just use OEM Honda filters for daily driving, does the job. I've used HAMP before for track or spirited driving, not sure can feel the difference but it suppose to be better for oil pressure etc.

OEM Honda Filter is Very good, and the Hamps is made to the same quality only it is made in Thailand hance the price difference, but mugen Filter has the same dimension and size it uses better Filter paper to trap more unwanted particals so if you are after performance and you do your SVC every 5000 Km's and frequen Track Day then Mugen is what I'll recommend, other wise OEM honda oil filter / Hamp Oil Filter is best for honda engine, I wouldnt trust anything eles.

I've come across this suggestion aswell.

Bringing this one back to the surface momentarily. Personally I went with an OEM Honda B16 oil filter but next time I might go with Mugen.

1.the hamp oil filter for the b16b / b18c engine is the same ?
2.what is the part number of hamp filter ?
there are two types of them one big and one smaller.

The Hamp filter I used a few months back was the small one and it was quite cheap as well, think I only paid about £6 and it seems to do the job!

Ok boys I have found some time at work today cutting open some oil Filter here are the results

Mugen Filter Paper and pressure relieve valve

Hamp next to Mugen [Hm.....they look very Similar]

OEM Filter Paper next to Hamp

Size of the Filter Left OEM Middle HAMP Right Mugen

OEM pressure relieve Valve

HAMP pressure relieve Valve

Mugen pressure relieve Valve


Im not sure about the filter Papers itself I think the Mugen has a tighter weave on the filter paper.

if you as me who wins the Day !!

easy Mugen :x win with Filter paper.
but if you want my personal reference I'll go with OEM

Note: there is an Oil pressure change between OEM and HAMP filters from my mechanical gauge, about 3-4 PSI different HAMP has a Higher Pressure and OEM is slightly lower
I am using Valvoline 5w40 SYN power Engine Oil the Oil pressure at IDLE right after an oil change and engine is at Op temp HAMP 42 PSI OEM 37 PSI, So I relate that to Higher Flow ?? correct me if im wrong yet to try the Mugen Filter they are so expensive X_X !!
