Jim Hall sold the company in 2020, but he is still an integral part. I'm just not sure if he is on the forums on a daily basis anymore. A C8 system is in development at Halltech but a release date has not been set yet. Harding Performance will be selling it as soon as it is available.

Halltech url is here https://www.halltechsystems.com They are not yet showing a kit, but they have space for it, so clearly they are moving in that direction.

AFE has two intake kits available for pre-order right now, and available next month. AFE & AttackBlue both are selling drop-in air filters as well. I haven't seen anything from K&N yet.

Realistically, we are still in the "zone" where we can't tune the ECU and thereby can't major upgrades in power.

I had the new prototype AFE CAI system on my C8 for R&D and testing, it is a awesome system with 2 large inverted cone filters that sounded great at wide open throttle and down shifting. It is a quality work of art with a lot of engineering development time involved. They really knocked it out of the park. Functioned fine, no CEL's or fitment issues.

Agree.....and there is one C8 that has 510rwhp with a best ET of 10.55@129. I guess that's a little more at the crank. This C8 has headers, ported throttle body and intake manifold, AFE Filter, and drag pack.

No, that was Carlos Riuz from Naples Florida. I am familiar with Snowblind from up North. Same white cars with different set ups. Carlos's C8 has no head work. Google......"RearWheelDrive " and should see some good stuff on the C8 regarding bolt ons and drag racing.

My plan is to get an AttackBlue drop-in air filter then an AFE intake system once they release a plastic version (not carbon fiber) that's somewhat less outrageously priced.

We are getting some of the AFE carbon intakes, had some on preorder. Should be getting it on later this month to next, depending on which style you get, track or black. Feel free to text us at 213 394 2886.

The prototype was removed, it was 3D printed and now it is being in the final stages for production. I have now only have the performance aftermarket filter on, they also tested this OEM replacement performance filter on my C8. They have not yet told me any final numbers on the CAI system, I am waiting for the final production system to be fitted now.
