Mahle oil filters and K&N air filter, looks like smoky turbos and bad MAF sensor in your future!

Default Don't use the Mahle filter

Don't use that (short) oil filter.

Do a search on this forum for "smoking" and "mahle." Lots of people have had the infamous smoking on startup problem which has usually been attributed to the short (on the engine case, not the oil tank) Mahle filter. Spare yourself the headache and get the Porsche filter instead.

Great spark plugs, you need to make sure they are right for your engine build.
Re. the filters, 911/Q45 is right, check out the sticky thread from Kevin on the top of the 993TT forum, I am sure Bob sold you the right ones though.
