I've dug into the engines of all my cars and saw no evidence that K&N filters are detrimental in any way conversely a friend insisted on using a paper air filter on his Subaru powered off road car because "If Subaru used it, it must be good". After a season or two, he lost compression and when I dismantled the engine, it was full of sand. Never saw any sand inside any of my off road engines.

If you seriously believe that Porsche knows it all and therefore you should only use their filter then think about all the things Porsche has done wrong namely the IMSB and RMS issues of late.
Hey, it's your car so do what you want with it.
I never made any such statement that Porsche knows it all.

I only sought to share information.

Personally, I bought a Porsche because of the countless things they've done well over the last 85 years or so.

Good Luck.

Respectfully,
Mitchell
