The C8 has a system that monitors the performance of the air filter and will tell you when to replace it. The manual says it may last for as long as 4 years.
No, it doesn't. The owner's manual says "if equipped," but so far none of the C8s seem to actually have it. The OM is full of standard text that gets included in every OM whether it makes sense or not. The C8 OM even talks about securing children in the rear seat.

Thanks, I didn't know that. But I'd bet that the statement "it may last for as long as 4 years" will hold true with such a system or not.

Hey guys sorry for the delay. I had updated the websites with all the info including the filtration data. I needed to come here and post . I do apologize for that.
I'll eventually shrink it and place it in the first post another time. Both independent tests were done by another party. Unfortunately we had received the wrong number so it backed the final numbers down a tad. Its 11.28 HP and 9.25 of torque. Still a nice gain. I had corrected everything. Next we would like to take it to the track and see how she does. We feel the improvements made will really shine in real world testing too. We look like we are on target for the release date. Any questions please contact us via email (sales@tkoperformance.com) as we don't get on the forum as much as we would like and apparently we don't always get notifications from posts.
Feel free to call toll free too 1800 778 9898- Thank you!
It would be nice to see an overlay graph with a before and after showing increase of power and torque throughout the rpm range. This would give people a better idea the increase of power throughout the rpm.

I plan on replacing mine when I get around to changing the transmission oil and filter when they're in that area working anyway and adding the extra 2 quarts at that time too. I just ordered one now in case I decide to try it on my own before servicing the transmission.

Fed ex goes by dimensional weight which actually just means..size. The filter is big so the box is large. We are trying to get that number down but right now fed ex charges what they charge. Sorry my friend.

Actually you could feel it. However a gain is a gain and If your going to replace the filter, might as well install something that adds power.

Can’t testify on the C8, but our C7 Z06 had the usual slight stumble of the line and some issues with not pulling ”smooth” in various acceleration scenarios. The Dry Nano completely solved the stumble issues and the pull is smooth and strong through the entire band. Would not hesitate to put one in any C7. Hopefully the C8 Dry Nano will have a similar strong impact.

I remember that stumble. My '16 Z06 had that also. The filter would be well worth it just for its ability to smooth that out. Interesting.

Attack Blue's new C8 filter dubbed "Lavenza" obtains its performance without forfeiting filtration by using proprietary Advanced Dry NanoTechnology. We put 2 years into developing this amazing media. Now more power and more filtration is NOT an oxymoron...
POWER
Attack Blue's Patent Pending design paid off. Simply drop it in and free up 11hp & 9lbs of torque. Numbers you can actually feel!
No tuning. No CEL's. No surging. Nothing but responsive, smooth drivability, more power & more torque with just a filter swap.
FILTRATION
What good is more power if you're sacrificing filtration? Attack Blue obtains these large numbers without forfeiting filtration by using proprietary advanced dry Nanotechnology. For the first time more power and more filtration is NOT an oxymoron.
ITS A FACT that nanotechnology provides the absolute best filtration while at the same time providing the best air flow over other traditional filtration media. Nanofibers are ultra fine, so much smaller and thinner than traditional spun fibers. This allows you to pack more filtering media in the same amount of space which will still allow air to flow but it creates a treacherous path for dirt & debris so it gets caught up and captured.
Independent Testing shows Attack Blues proprietary dry Nanofibers capturing dirt down to an unbelievable unheard of SUB-micron level. No other filter provides the same filtration and airflow to feed your engine for power. Other companies test to the ISO 5011 standard where the majority of test particles are can be greater than 20 micron and therefor does not provide a clear( or true) picture of the filters level of retention. We took it one step further and tested to "Breathing Air " standard ASHREA 52.2 and the results shown down to 0.3 submicron particle size. What other Corvette filter does that?
This submicron level of particulate retention increases engine life by reducing wear on internal engine surfaces
PATENT PENDING DESIGN
In addition to outstanding filtration and air flow, we created this filter with our pat pending V-impede design which allows the air to flow quick, smooth & with less turbulence.
DRY - WASHABLE & REUSABLE
The Attack Blue C8 filter uses an engineered proprietary dry washable and reusable media. To clean, just use soap and water! NO oils, NO chemicals needed to buy or use. . Besides saving you money, you have the ability to run on a clean free flowing filter more often.

I've been wondering if you have filtration data vs the stock filter. I already know that I won't be installing a K&N for just that reason.

I have heard many won't install an oil filter for that reason too. I'm personally on the same page.
However rather than paper, or gauze & oil, the Attack Blue uses new dry nanotechnology. Designed in a lab & built in the USA.
Im sure the GM filter from Taiwan / Mexico does a fine job with filtration. But regardless the Attack Blue's nanofibers are capturing dirt at an amazing sub micron level, so testing against it is moot.
Besides our target and market is aftermarket filters so we focused, tested and compared in that arena which we crushed that competition. If your happy with the disposable GM filter we understand...
