Largest Oil Filter possible

The oil filter on my 03 1.8L is just too small to satisfy me. I've heard that larger filters will also work. Does anyone know the car type and year that I can substitute, for example, is the 03 Camry V6 engine the same size for thread and o-ring diameter.

Anyone know of a website that actually lists the thread and o-ring diameters so I can lookup myself.

Quite a few conflicting opinions as to whether it's beneficial for the vehicle or not. Not to mention how many argue over which filter is the best...lol. I'll probably try out the longer of the too (which if I read correctly is the filter designed for the 2005-2008 motor).

I understand your concern, but I think that with regular oil changes with quality oil and filters, you be better than fine!
