BMC rates the media at 7 microns against roughly 10 for OEM paper — more airflow and finer filtration together. Supplied pre-oiled; cleaned and re-oiled with a BMC regeneration kit rather than replaced. Be sparing with the oil at service time — an over-oiled element is how filter oil ends up on a mass airflow sensor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigher airflow than the original paper filter, with finer filtration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraps particles down to 7 microns — OEM paper is rated around 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-layered cotton gauze in epoxy-coated alloy mesh, supplied pre-oiled\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull Moulding construction — one-piece red rubber frame with no welded joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWashable and regenerable with a BMC cleaning kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne part number spans the 996 3.4 and 3.6 Carreras and the 997.1 3.6 and 3.8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Vehicles:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 (996) 3.4 H6 Carrera Coupé \/ Cabriolet 300HP — 1997–2001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 (996) 3.4 H6 Carrera 4 Coupé \/ Cabriolet 300HP — 1997–2001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 (996) 3.6 H6 Carrera 4 320HP \/ 345HP — 2002–2006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 (996) 3.6 H6 Carrera 4S 320HP \/ 345HP — 2002–2006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 (996) 3.6 H6 Targa 320HP \/ 345HP — 2002–2006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 (996) 3.6 H6 40 Jahre 345HP — 2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 (997) 3.6 H6 Carrera 325HP — 2005–2008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 (997) 3.6 H6 Carrera 4 325HP — 2004–2008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 (997) 3.6 H6 Targa 4 325HP — 2006–2008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorsche 911 (997) 3.8 H6 Carrera 4S 355HP — 2006–2008\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e BMC lists FB156\/01 without a multi-filter annotation — it is supplied as a single filter.
