Whatever dust, dirt, water, bug gets pilled on and baked/dried on as I drive her more. Of course it will clog up some and not get as good of a vacuum compared to new.
But 11k+ miles on that filter and my car still pulls like a train! She is just noticeable louder now that's all. As for servicing the Filter. You have to drop the turbo which includes 2 clamps and 4 nut/bolts. Get a second hand to help hold the turbo or have somehting to rest it on as you pull the dirty filter off. Mine was minorly melted onto the turbo itself. I used a thin screwdriver and broke the seal all the way around it and she wiggled right off.
Anyhoo, didn't make it to the Drag strip because it was wet out.
Happy boosting! I know I am.

My first one was major league melted. Had to buy a replacement. Sent pics to the manufacturer and they said they had never had that problem. If this one does the same I'm gonna switch to something else.
