Because I am coming up on 4k miles, so I need to change it.

PLUS... I didnt swap out the oil when I installed the turbo and it already had 2k miles on it at the time.

EDIT: you guys are all using the larger Millenia filter, right?

This oil change I need to remember to grab a cheap millenia-sized filter to see if itll fit. (I know it works for the NA perfectly, but there is limited clearance on the MSM)

I have the part numbers for aftermarket filters by the same company that makes them for mazda. let me find them and I will post them up. They a few bucks cheaper than if you buy them from mazda because they do not have the "MAZDA" log on them. Local SPEC miata shop sells them
