After posting the answer to this question, I decided to do some serious investigating.
Although our original filters had some very impressive specifications, with some additional investigating and with some in-depth conversations about oil flow and particle retention, we were able to have Hubb supply us with a far superior filtration system. We are working closely with Hubb engineers to make a racing version of their filter available to the Porsche community.
Although these filters will be DYI serviceable, in the near future we hope to offer an in-house sonic cleaning service that will restore the filter to 99% of it's original flow specifications.

Hubb Filtration Systems
Filter Specifications
• Filter-in-a-filter design that is 99% efficient at removing oil contaminants at 25 microns
(versus 52% for conventional filters)
• Two pressure differential valves for increased oil flow and engine safety
• Filter is made of surgical stainless 316L weave and is cased with a hardened aluminum
shell.
• All internal parts are easy to clean and re-usable
• Entire filter is completely recyclable – no waste
• Filter can be drained 100% of oil – does not capture and hold oil in filter like paper filters
(approximately 5 ounces per filter)
• Improve oil flow by up to 5 times, when compared to conventional filters, to reduce
engine friction
• Produce an oil flow rate of up to 50 gallons/minute, compared to 10-12 gallons/minute
for conventional filters
• Require only .2 PSI/gallon to push oil flow, compared to 7 PSI/gallon for conventional
filters
• Increase contaminant storage capacity by 5 times, but do not accumulate unrecyclable
oil like conventional filters
• Reduce carbon monoxide emissions by up to 30% and nitric oxide emissions by up to
16%
• Double your standard oil change interval reducing oil costs by 50% or more
• Ability to have Hubb clean the filters and manage your filter core inventory for you

After watching the 3.8 slide valve auction on BAT, I was reminded of this thread. I thought it deserved to be resurrected.
