How to install a K&N filter?

Where I live there's lots of dust and debris in the air all the time, so I prefer to regularly clean the air filter rather than buy a new one every couple of months. I have no worries of damaging the MAS, i've used this type of filters in two of my previous cars and never had any trouble. I just take the time and patience so as not to over oil them. Anyway if the MAS were to fail I would just replace the K&N with the stock air filter. I'm looking for the extra intake sound without having to waste $350 on the Evolution Motorsports intake. Also, in all of the other cars I've intalled the air filters I've noticed a slightly better trottle response, don't know if it will happen in the boxster but it could. I've talked to lots of porsche owners who run their daily and track cars with K&N filters and none have had any trouble with their MAS. Also the guys at my Porsche dealer are really cool and they don't bother with stupid stuff like this. I've read about MAS problems but most of them were on completely stock cars, so it probably is just a factory defect and people as always trying to scare others with "stories they've heard". So don't worry and I'll let you know if anything ever happens. -
Hi. I bought a K&N filter for my 07' boxster and I tried to install it yesterday, but just can't get the air box out of the engine bay like they did in the instructions that came with the filter. Can someone who did the install or knows about it, help me out? Any pictures will be appreciated. Thanks for the info. Alex
