Any brands of fuel filters to avoid for FD'S?

Im planning on doing the fuel filter soon as it looks like the one that's in there is stock, and i wanted to know if there are Any brands of fuel filters to avoid in FD'S?

I'm running a Wix with no issues. Just keep it changed every 10k miles and you will be good.

Thanks for the reply looks like not to many people have opinions on changing there fuel filters lol, anyways WIX it is.

My only other concern was if the micron rating on the filter was a big deal with turbo cars.

i would relocate that thing. its a pain where it sits stock. plus cost of replacement "inline" filters would be cheaper in the long run.

The only thing I hate about the Wix is the Made In China stamp. I don't trust the chinese when it comes to quality but this is just a simple filter.
