Dave, Problem with turbos was any oil mist (+ it's small dirt content)hitting the turbine (at 100,000 rpm or more)was somewhat abrasive and turbos could not withstand it for long. A good paper element is a little more efficient, but it is also down to micron grain sizes as well as % efficiency. Sevice requirement can easier be indicated (with pressure drop across the media), but on the down side, how many get damaged by blowing out instead of replacement? Engine life has been markedly increased by the use of more wear/heat resistant materials as well as improved manufacture and design plus lubes and filters. I believe the Japanese started it with much closer tolerance engineering, with very high revving motorcycle engines in the '60s. Just rubbed off on the rest over the years. Regards,RAB
