Bosch Equivalent to Purolator?

[Job]

I always liked the Bosch filters. They have exclusive media not used on any other filters, according to them. The Premium has 99% @ 20 micron efficiency in the lab if that is something you consider.

Yes, they seem pretty good. Only potential negatives I've heard are (1) that the gaskets may be thin, causing the filter can to contact the engine before the gasket has fully sealed the opening and (2) the potential Purolator tearing issues. I know many use them with good results. Unfortunately, the Bosch Premium 3323 is not stocked everywhere Bosch filters are sold.
