You've had the intake system and BMC filter on the car for only 3 mo and you've already cleaned it twice?.....And it's due for another cleaning? Do you drive in extremely dusty and poor conditions all day? I might be wrong but I think you may be overdoing the cleaning thing IMO. My BMC filter came with instructions to clean and reoil every 15k miles. This is under normal use of course, but I don't picture many boxster owners driving down gravel roads all day long with would neccesitate the kind of cleaning regiman you are currently on. Just food for thought because the more you monkey with reoiling and cleaning the more likely you are going to foul the MAF.
