Most rather pay a little more for a lot more protection. Nanofiber (which is the media for the Attack Blue) is the absolute best in filtration and provides the most air flow at the same time (indisputable).

Being a dry filter is only half the battle. The new Attack Blue dry Nano media captures dirt/particular at sub-micron levels. This is huge in helping prevent damage to engine internals over time.
Many filter companies test under ISO 5011. Most use coarse dust.
Course Dust – 90% of the particles are larger than 5 micron (which is the majority).
Even Fine Dust – 70 % are greater than 5 micron. The ISO 5011 test does not show the harmful sub-micron efficiency.
Since the ISO 5011 test does not analyze or look at sub-micron retention, we had to go to the next level and use ASHRAE 52.2 (“Breathing Air” standard) for results. This testing method provided far more accurate data which tested down to sub-micron particles.

Did I mention its Washable & Reusable!

The fact the Attack Blue 7th Gen Filter creates incredibly smooth, huge power & torque (at STE not STD) levels and throws no codes is just gravy....

Hard for me to believe that just changing Air Filter can provide 30WHP gain...that's almost 50HP at the crank!

It is, which is why we posted the dyno results done by a know respected independent shop (Next Level Performance).

I'm interested as well, for the additional filtration provided as much as the claimed performance, but I'd like to see some additional forum testimonials. It seems like plenty have ordered, so please share your input.

Got mine installed and it runs great.

Definately seems like a high quality filter and I didnt have any issues. I have a supercharged lt1 so I'm not sure if it added any power, but i dont feel that it hurt any.

The main reason I got this was more flow with the same filtering as oem

Is the filter base opening the same size as the BMS?

Default A challenge/real world test.

I have used the TKO blue filter in my last 2010 (430 HP) A6 black GS Corvette and it preformed the best in the 1/4 mile out of the filters I tried. It went 11.32 @125 MPH with a set of 1 3/4" headers, a DS "canned" tune, sticky tires and a TKO filter in my modified into a CAI stock housing. PS: Stock it went 12.31 @ 115 MPH (C6 Forum GS stock record which 'may' still stand).

I have also done a C7/Z06 thread on the BMS to AFE CAI (using their 'Low Flow' dry filter) in a back to back 1/4 mile test; running the installed for weeks BMS filter 'first', then the AFE CAI (two passes each for both). If you read that post you will see the results are interesting (IMO).

What I'm willing to do if TKO sends me a filter is the same test that I did above but running the AFE CAI down the track 'first', then the TKO filter.

Awesome to hear. Yes, we have heard and seen so many testimonials where the Attack Blue made a difference on both the strip and road courses. We typically see Attack Blue on many "go fast" lists.

Nano Technology for the absolute best air flow without giving up filtration over any other media. Its indisputable.

Drop it in an experience, a smoother (no surging) "snappier" ride with no engine codes & more power to your wheels.

I believe so. I could fit the oem filter inside the opening of the AB filter, but could not fit the AB into the OEM.. Crappy comparison but I dont have a BMS.

Thanks for that, that was very helpful! Let us know how it works out for this filter and your ET/Trap. good luck!

So for your C6 how many rwhp increase vs stock filter?

So for your C6 how many rwhp increase vs stock filter?

* I'll let you know how the 'Attack Blue' works if somebody sends me one.
I could test the 'Attack Blue' against the 'BMS' and the 'Green' Filter that Lingenfelter uses in it's 720 HP stage 1 kit. I already have those two filters. That test would most likely be more interesting for most forum members because you are only shopping for the best stock replacement 'high flow' air filter.

* The ordered 2010 stock GS went 12.31 @ 115 MPH (no wheel spin) with a 'completely' full tank of gas & a 260 lb. driver. Then I added three mods that affected HP; 1 3/4" Headers, DiabloSport 93 octane "canned" tune, and a stock intake converted to a CAI using the Attack Blue air filter. I went 11.32 @ 125 MPH on sticky tires (no wheel spin).

That's approx. 1 second lower ET and approx. 10 MPH faster. I would say/guess that one second quicker & a gain of 10 MPH requires approx. 100 HP. How much each mod contributed I can't say but I do believe that the headers are probably supplying the lion's share of HP to that N/A engine.

KOOL!!!


Warming the tires up.


Black on a C6 GS is "BAD TO THE BONE"

Very cool!

TKOperformance C7/Z06 Man have been drag racing for awhile, he researches which part helps his ET best and gets that part, and also test out different parts. Posts results in great detail etc. He might be helpful with your attack blue and business! Just search his posts he really enjoys drag racing it seems.

Question a long time ago I also heard you gain about .1 sec for 10hp added, that was for civic. Now I have also heard the same 10 hp for .1 gain for C7 Z06 from a few sources. But one is 150hp another is 650, at 650 don't you need more than 10hp to gain .1? Especially it's a 10 sec car already, hard to gain another .1 no?

100lbs = .1th of a second how about for the trap speed is it also .1 sec gain for 1mph higher?
