what is the difference between a Fram oil filter and a oil filter from the dealer for the vr6? you guys say that the dealer filters are soo much better, but what could be better about them, they look exactly the same?

the main reason i am asking is because the vr6 filter for my car is just the inner filter element with plastic ends, it doesnt come with a new canister. so what would be better about a OEM element compared to a $10 Fram or AC Delco? would the filter elements be different or am i just payin for the name?
