Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

My Turbo has a Evoms V-Flow air intake, I recently replaced the filter with one that they sell that is 100% Oil Free that they indicated to be is MAF safe.
Leading evidence: 'Replace filter' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Replace filter' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I just bought a 996 3.4 Carrera Tip S and was wondering if any member has installed a K & N 57-7000 performance air filter.
http://www.knfilters.com/search/product.aspx?Prod=57-7000
Is it worth the £267 and did you see any impovments?
Thanks guys

Congratulations!
There is loads of material on the K&N and other CAI kits - opinions are mixed but overall my impression of the consensus is "do it for fun and for the sound of it, but don't expect to see much extra power".
If you click on Search Forum and search for "CAI" (because it probably won't like the ampersand in K&N) you will find plenty of reading matter!
I hate them for these reasons.

But it's your money, and other than endangering the MAF and possibly actually reducing the BHP, it will make more noise.
K & N 57-7000
I have just fitted the K & N induction kit & the sound is fab...can't say I notice any difference in performance...in fact sems to be more refined when revving but maybe because of the noise it just seems different.
My question is that I bought my kit in the USA as it was half the UK price....it fitted with no problems but from previous posts it seems that not all come with the drycharger (mine did)....the instructions suggest it must be fitted.....it must affect the air induction so will it cause any problems if I dont fit it. I try to avoid going out when its pouring so I am not concerned about the filter getting too wet.
Thanks

The filter system came on the car and I quite like it... would I have purchased had I not had it... I'm note sure... there are some things in life not worth pondering...
Welcome

CAI
GT4...is the CAI method possible with a Tiptronic Car? my car has the gas pipe that flows into the airbox as per US models!!! Mine is definately a UK model spec though!
Yes.
You have two options:
1) Request Tip version (with tapping point in CAI pipe to mimic OEM)
or
2) Add an additional mini-filter cone (looks like a sponge fish tank aerator) to the Tip breather tube.
Speak to supplier to determine if the manufacturer offers either on their CAI kits.
