luv2box has a differing opinion on the advisability of decreasing the filtration effectiveness of the air cleaner while also decreasing the resistance.

My list offers the possibilities.

If each is a wise move, I'll leave to the reader.

Actually Mike we do not disagree on your opinion of how to increase air flow we just have differing opinions of the long term effects of oiled air filters on a motor. When I first bought my Boxster I read your entire web site for information about it and have always been grateful for your insight. Let's not let a disagreement over one thing ruin the fellowship of owning such a great car.

Wayne Gretzky, Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods.....all the best athletes had coaches and practiced and took lessons. No matter how good you are at something, you can always learn and get better.
It's less about what you know/don't know - it's more about practicing and enhancing your knowledge. IMO

Even if he has, do it again. The more you do it, the better you will get. Practice practice and more practice will only increase ones ability (up to a certain point - but I'd be willing to bet we aren't there yet).
