I don't know about everyone else, but I hate it everytime I go to change my oil and am reminded of how small my oil filter is. How can that thing do the job that the 2.2lt requires? So, I found one that matched the thread pattern and diamater and just put it on my car. It's a PureONE PL14477. It's only about a half and inch longer, but it's enough to make me happy. I'll try to find out what car comes with that.

it wont hurt at all.
no real need tho, the stock filter is perfectly fine, and is also used on the 3s. when i first turboed, i used a ford V8 filter for awhile...it holds almost a quart by itself its so huge! lmao... just a bit of overkill IMO...
