and the turbo only has one filter - it has intercoolers where the second filters are on a gts.
Turbo S seems to have only 1 filter.
Maybe that's the reason my car cannot keep up with the those ridiculous fast GTSs ? LOL
As far as noticing a difference : it's hard to notice +10HP when you're already running 600HP (my car is flashed).
I run BMC filters in all my Porsches and perform an annual clean + lube on the filters. That way I rest assured the cars always breathe well.

Thank you Stringbag! I was able to find the download. It is HUGE! I haven't figured out how to read it/find the relevant parts yet.....
Just another option I believe should work. (Please correct me if I'm wrong)! aFe has both oiled and dry type of this panel filter. I prefer dry type personally.

Interesting never heard of this company, oiled version not recommended for the PTT?
There are rumored stories about K&N filters allowing too much dirt through and damaging turbo (turbo dusting) impellers, but that was rumor for K&N. There is also a concern with too much oil fouling the MAF sensors. I try to get the dry type whenever possible, then resort to oiled type if I do not have the choice.

34% Increased air flow is only listed on the oiled type and not the dry...or is it same for both?

There is a sacrifice in flow for the dry type as far as I'm aware. You do not risk oiling up your MAF in return. The dry type used to be more efficient at filtering, but nowadays the oiled type are enhanced I think by adding extra layer(s) of cotton.
aFe is a company not too far from me so maybe that's why I'm aware of them. K&N is the more well known brand. K&N took over AirAid and AEM Intakes as I know. One more company is Injen. (I haven't checked if they make filters for Porsche yet)....
Found aFe round filters I believe for those GTS owners interested. (Just figured it out today per part #, first 3 digits being model code, and a little Google search).
