Paragon air filter dyno test
I haven't seen a dedicated thread for this and figured it deserves one. This testing shows there are real gains to be had. About half what vendors claim, but regardless, they're there and repeatable. Thank you Paragon!

***SPOILER ALERT***
AttackBlue is apparently the easy choice! Great to see you really can have the best of both worlds... Better than OEM filtering along with improved airflow at the same time; clear case of getting exactly what you pay for which is nice to see from the aftermarket.

I live in sandy florida. The roads are covered in sand (probably not as bad as AZ though). Dyno tests are one thing, but I am more concerned about the filter's ability to trap contaminants.
Your statement of "better than OEM filtering" is nowhere validated in that sales promo video.
Where is the testing with different grades of particulates?

"FILTRATION
What good is more air & power if you're sacrificing filtration? Attack Blue obtains these large numbers without forfeiting filtration by using proprietary advanced dry Nanotechnology. Attack Blues media catches dirt down to an incredible 0.3 submicron level which is the size of some bacteria while still feeding your engine truck loads of air!
We took 2 years and 2 laboratories to create this dry Nanofiber media which is superior as far as airflow and filtration.
ITS A FACT that nanofibers provide the absolute best air flow while at the same time providing the best filtration over other traditional filtration media. This is undisputable.
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.
This submicron level of particulate retention can increase engine life by reducing wear on internal engine surfaces.
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."
