Question on oil filters.

When I worked at an oil change place (many MANY years ago), we were never truly "out" of a filter because we had a cross reference guide. That book listed filters by thread rate/diameter and gasket diameter. Going smaller was always an option but sometimes we could go bigger if room allowed. Now to my point...Is there a list of filters that would fit the Yaris that would take the oil fill to 4 quarts rather than 3.9?

I remember the MR2 had this tiny little filter that would also fit quite a few other cars (not wanting that one, just mentioning for reference). It looked a bit ridiculous but it would actually fit a few V6 models in a pinch.

There are a couple threads that can be found by searching 'bigger oil filter'.
