CAI vs BMS filter

Having just installed the BMS filter yesterday on my 2017 Z06 (no CEL) I can vouch that it is very noticeable in terms of throttle response. It is very noticeable that the car is breathing better and it is eye opening on how much the stock filter was suffocating the engine.

I know my AFe cai on my 15 was no placebo effect! I raced against another 15 exact copy of mine, i pulled 3 lenght by the end of the 1/2 miles
Also had a ported tb and xpipe

Your total lack of imagination is noted ... Your emotional (female like) response is laughable.
Sorry but there is no way someone is “feeling” any HP gains from a simple drop in filter. I seriously doubt that they’ gained any throttle response or any non sense of the sort, either.
I did not have to purchase the BMS filter to conclude any of that ... BUT, since you asked (with accusational tones)

It was really a night and day difference on my MY17 M7. A ported TB made a small difference in the engine surging / choking under slight throttle. Have had the BMS on for a few months have not not had any hesitation since.

I did a bms filter mod this summer. I noticed a difference. I'm not saying it got faster but definitely smoother.
for the m7 guys they will know as the driving experience is more involving. A8 guys probably won't know as the computer does everything and the mental note of not doing anything but leave it in D, should conclude to that theory.

I do agree that one isn’t going to feel any power difference from a filter. Even 40hp is tough to feel on a 650hp car. However with my M7 there is better throttle response. Especially when taking off from a dead stop. I already have the Mamo TB and the dead spot at take off is basically gone now. Now in an auto that would be hard to notice as well.
