Is that filter spec'd for that car? It looks like it's a Ford/Mazda application.
Depending your OCI, I would use a Pureolator PureOne for OCI's in the 6K to 7.5K OCI's....or Purolator Classic for 5K OCI's.

Are you talking about the bypass setting? If so, no, do not use a filter with a bypass setting 20 pounds higher than the one intended for your vehicle even if it otherwise "fits".

Do not use if the bypass is set that high.

Why not use the Toyota TRD High Performance filter designed for your Camry?
One source is here: TRD High Performance Camry Oil Filter
Or you can pay a little more and buy it at your local Toyota dealership.

No offense but a TRD filter on a V6 Camry? Maybe on a Twin Turbo Supra but for a Camry, it's getting whatever WIX or Purolator is on sale.

What are you looking to do with a larger than OEM oil filter? Doubtful if you would ever fill up a normal filter with debris and the extra oil you get in the system (1/2 cup) is minimal.

No offense, but perhaps the person who asked the question does not share your point of view ...

Different strokes for different folks but is not worth questioning why somebody would put a "racing" filter on a commuter?

The way some people commute, they might as well be in a race car.
