Here's why I converted....

...I bought my 2004 Boxster S "50 Years of 550 Spyder Edition" in 2015.


My first Porsche after owning a Miata for 25 years.

I immediately shipped the car to Jake Raby of Flat 6 Innovations and had him perform his "Level 3" package of preventative maintenance.

This involved a new water pump, new rear main seal, new Air/Oil Separator, new cam chain tensioners, new spark plugs, and the....wait for it....."IMS Solution".

Part of his "IMS Solution" is a spin-on oil filter adapter.

As part of the service, he provides a list os "approved" spin-on oil filters that have passed his scientific oil flow tests.

The Napa "Gold" filter is one of the best. I asked Jake, "Wouldn't the Platinum filter be better than the Gold filter?" He replied, "The Gold flows better in our testing."

There ya go.

Jeff in PA knows of what he posts.

Just do it.

P.S.
Yes, the bypass valve bypass is also a huge plus.
