We've sold a few hundred of our drop in filters now and they definitely just as well and in some cases better than the expensive airbox replacements in the 630whp and lower power levels. We've not done a lot of testing above those levels but I suspect it's still pretty competitive. The AFE and Haltech work great too though for cars that don't throw codes or run too lean with them, so live and let live on the intake (and TB) wars.

I have the BMS and Tony’s PTB on order. Plan on no tune at this time. I was reading on another thread that people lost low end torque with Borla X pipe. Maybe the Stingrays??? Would like the X pipe for sound but don’t want to lose torque/power down low. I am one of the 5% that threw a code with the PTB but in a late build 16Z not 17. Tony is sending one less aggressive. Is it known that the reflashing was just needed in early 17s? Thanks for any advise/info.

I have a 2016 c7z automatic. I am at sea level. I have the BMS white filter, but no CAI. I have had no codes. I installed a katech ported TB. I took the car up to 150, and my engine light is now on. I assume I am running lean.
If i take the car to the dealer tomorrow, what are the odds they will notice the ported TB and air filter? I refuse to tune the car. Will I run lean and blow the motor running this combination if I don't make a correction? Everything else on the car is stock.

I found that after installation of the Mamo PTB the stumble was gone. After then adding the BMS filter the stumble was back but at a lesser level. This is in a 2016 Z06. Removed the BMS and all was good again.

. I have and love the Mamo PTB and was planning on the BMS as my next purchase.
Good to know though, thanks for posting.

Same thing here. My car loved the Mamo TB but just didn't seem right when I added the BMS filter. Took the BMS filter off and runs/idles perfect again.

I installed the BMS a few months ago and it definitely helped with the throttle lag. Overall power increase doesn't seem too noticeable, but I wasn't expecting much from just an air filter.
I did it just to confirm that it helps with the lazy throttle, and it definitely does.

Also I did have a CEL before installing the BMS, so I had the reflash done my dealer for the P0106 code about a month before I installed the BMS. I haven't had a CEL since.
