The APR intake can utilize the stock, BMC, and APR filter as well as any other aftermarket filter designed for the 992 3.0/3.7 engines as the OEM filter housing is retained in their intake design. The APR are not rebranded BMC, they are their own design, but they were found to perform within 1% of each other in flowbench testing. The both saw ~50 mbar reduction in pressure drop across the filter media compared to the OEM paper filter.
I would not recommend the APR intake system, have mine installed and it's leaking oil from the bolt on section that connects the breather/pcv hose. Switching to do88s as there is no "bolt" on system for this section to potentially leak as it's integrated into the hose.
@venom911 , can you get in touch with our support team? I want to take a closer look at this. I have not seen this before and want to help. Support@goapr.com or 334 502 5181

I'm wondering if I'm having the same issue. I found a couple drops of oil under the car on the right side but it looked old so I'm not sure if it is from that or not. I cleaned it up and will check in the next few days but the drops looked like they were in the exact same spot under my car on then right side.

I have, and in all honestly, they ignored me for days and have not been very helpful at all which is very disappointing.

Have you checked the seal?
That pic, the left bottom screw almost looks loose?? The rubber seal should hold it, verify. Those screws might need a dab of blue loctitte too, they could be loosening off.
Good to know this is passenger side, so that little bit of oil I saw on the passenger side is from this breather tube.
Someone needs to make a catch can and get rid of that oil into intake BS!
Oh ya, I’d check the seal on your bolt section, it’s not sealing properly if it’s leaking.
In all honesty, I don't think it's a very good design. These cars get a lot of oil in the right intake tube and it's only a matter of time that it will leak from the APR system because of that bolt on design that connects the breather hose vs it being integrated like the do88. Hopefully they take that feedback but I'm ditching these and yes. . . . we need a catch can for 992s asap. One thing never spoke about is these cars stock or even worse when tuned pushing all that boost will cause oil issues in intake, intercoolers, plenum, etc which can't be good long term. . . . .

Looks like a bad seal and not the bolts, here it is cleaned up below. What's worse is if oil is coming out, it also means a boost leak for me in the system.
APR actually makes a generic that might work.. I have to look under the car and see if there is anywhere to mount this thing, its prettyyyy tight under there..
