Default BluePower Airbox... cheers Chris.

Well i'd like to say a big thanks to chris at bluepower,
He dynoed the ORSM54 we pumped out 209.3rwkw, before putting on a bluepower air box. and what a result 236.8rwkw and no edit only a cat back exhaust. Nearly 30rwkw increase from the airbox alone, it just goest to show the quality of research and development that goes into all bluepower products. :

cheers mate
Tristan

Im pretty sure Chris pulls out a magic wand when no ones looking while his tuning some of these cars,... FULL credit to the man, He's a No 1 tuner without the BS, he tuned my old XR8, i might just have to visit him with my XRT to see if he can sprinkle a little magic on that

I must say that i am glad to hear this, happy customers are the ONLY ones to have.

Having this Airbox perform in the low 10's with the headlight still installed in front of it is testament to its quality.

But if you like our airbox, I cant wait for the looks on people's faces when they see our new NA Boss inlet manifold.............

Yep, airbox works a treat. Just keep us up to date on the manifold. What are you expecting from it mainly Hp or Torque? (forgot to ask you on the phone)

If you want send me PM with as much detail as possible. Very keen!!!

yeah, i had the BPR airbox on my 3V, and holy hell, its the biggest most noticeable power adder without doubt! And the induction roar is to die for... I miss my 3V.

PM sent Chris.

Chris,

I just can't thank you enough for the help you gave to me today in installing your BPR airbox into my ute.(over the phone)

We have never met and I am very impressed with your response to me calling you regarding how to correctly fit your product.

I have read many great comments regarding your products and willingness to help any AFF member out and today for me was no exception.

This is something you should be very proud of and your professionalism was evident to me today.

You have earnt my respect and I will be taking my vehicle no where else even if your over 1500kms from me.

Thanks for the advice regarding the diff change too.
I own you a least a couple of beers when we meet.

As far as the airbox goes well all I can say is that I couldn't believe that it would transform the ute in the way it has.

I'm sure old Henry himself would be blown away with that induction roar.

You could say I'm as happy as a puppy with two Peter's.

Thanks heaps
Chris (4MYEGO)
