I can get the Beck/Arnley filter for $26.98:
The Denso (OE manufacturer, presumably the same as the dealer part) is $33.87:
The one sold as Beck/Arnley "may be manufactured by an independent supplier." Generally, if i see that note with car parts, on Amazon, it turns out to be the cheapest (Chinese) brand part stuck in the packaging for a name brand, but it does have good reviews (the Denso filter does not have reviews).

If there's no difference, I might as well save $7, but if you think the Denso filter may provide superior filtration or superior flow, I don't mind paying more.

If it's worth it, I'll pay even more, for a dealer part, but Denso is the OEM, and while that doesn't always mean OEM part, with something like an air filter, I suspect it is.

Any suggestions?

(I know $7 isn't really a big deal, but in this case, it's over 25% more, and could buy me a pretty decent lunch.)

Also, does anyone happen to know if the filter will require modification to fit my '93 SC400? I know modifications are needed for '92s, but I can't seen to find out if it's just '92. I don't know the build date, off hand, but my '93 was made in '92 (dealer PDI completed in December '92).

Thanks in advance!

i run the beck arnley and it works just as good as oem so i vote save the 7.00.

Thanks! I'll do that.

Does anyone know if (early-ish) '93 needs modifications to fit?
