You might be already noticed some debate about air-filters , snorkels and pre-turbo piping ...
Here is very good articles on the subject :

http://www.autospeed.com/A_0637/P_1/article.html
http://www.autospeed.com/A_0646/P_1/article.html
http://www.autospeed.com/A_0652/P_1/article.html
http://www.autospeed.com/A_0663/P_1/article.html
And note how those findings are similar to some forum member findings ...
(Snorkel causes more vacuum than the filter. There is even more vacuum just before the turbo ...)
I hope that this would broaden the discussion wider that just a filter media !(K&N vs. PX vs. OEM ...)
Also total gained power & torque should be studied more closely !! (~0.5% vs. 10s%)
( ... and other effects ? Smoking ? Snow or ice blocking ? Passed particles ? etc. etc.)
