Bluepower Blower release imminent..... - Page 3

luxury-pack · 03-05-2007, 03:02 AM

Hi Chris.
Congrats on the release of your blower kits. Fantastic to see that someone is trying to give people great value for money.
Does the kit include a flash box and tuning, or is that extra?
Have you got any one in WA fitting them, and tuning?
Can they be run on just premium unleaded?
Sorry about all the questions.....

Hi mate, how have you been? Long time no speak. How are those nice long back roads of yours?

Exact financial details being worked out at the moment, our engineer Paul was on the blower (no pun intended) at 3.30 this morning to nut out some more details, will release all pricing when it comes to hand.

I have someone in mind for adelaide, and for perth.

Flashbox will be an extra cost, as will custom tuning - no generic tunes will be availible.

With the correct conditions in place, no problem with premium unleaded.

Drop me a line sometime mate.

Chris

XCSEDAN · 03-05-2007, 04:59 PM

You should have a word to Brett West mate.

fattony · 03-05-2007, 09:32 PM

Chris, if that blower was fitted to what you were piloting the other morning, all I can say is FMD absolutely insane.

Cheers Craig

Start the list now mate, I'll take one for my three valver

Hi mate,

yes, that is our base intercooled kit on a totally stock XR8 with manual, 3.23 gears.

Whilst i wont (for obvious reasons) go into details concerning my trip into work, i can confirm the two gears i was in at the time was third, and fourth

It is an entertaining vehicle to drive.

This car makes 400rwkw repeatedly on 10.5 psi and 450rwkw consistently on 13.5 psi.

Mate, your new ride looks the goods, when did u get the new turb?

Des Flurane · 04-05-2007, 03:31 PM

As I'm in NZ, am I ***** outta luck?

320BOSS · 04-05-2007, 05:58 PM

I am in NZ too!
There is definately a big market over here for this product so I am hoping that some thing can be arranged?

SavageF6 · 05-05-2007, 02:43 AM

First I've read about this kit, and I have to say I've learned a thing or two. Good work Bluepower.

Please post vids etc etc when able - my brother (see my sig) needs some motivation. Though I currently live in Adelaide due work (from FTG in Melb), he's in Melb and would be most interested once its up and running

Well..... The Agro and Mrs Agro might have to take a holiday to NZ to sort this problem out perhaps. Might have to look into it if there is a need!!!!

AGRO.

**Chris** · 05-05-2007, 09:47 AM

New Zealand wont be a problem either. I know some guys over the tasman have been waiting for our kit, they wont be let down.

320BOSS · 05-05-2007, 10:11 AM

Thats great news,with first baby due in 10 weeks the wife may take a LITTLE convincing to release some more funds!

BLKPHN · 07-05-2007, 01:21 PM

Hey All

Well I went over to visit chris last monday to check out the kit, first impressions on just looking at a top mount blower sitting there is amazing it really looks tough. the chris took us for a spin.. WOW... im still wiping the smile off my face a week later really impressive not overly loud really smooth and damn strong power delivery and when you are sat at the lights no one would ever know you have 400rwkw Ha Ha.

Well done guys it really is a fantastic job you have done and all the hours of RnD have really payed off great stuff!!

Redrum · 07-05-2007, 01:24 PM

As soon as I am well I am heading down there Chris for a ride!!!!!

X ORSMXR · 08-05-2007, 12:15 AM

Yes you are right, i would assume he took you for a spin in a black ute that was manual, wait till you get a chance in an auto......man it's like nothing you've ever felt before. :Reverend: :Reverend: :Reverend: :Reverend:

blueboost · 08-05-2007, 08:31 AM

Sweet, this will be the kit, that other kits are measured by. just what the boss neaded.

Its worth it mate, the quality of these kit are really great.

SpoolMan · 14-05-2007, 05:07 PM

I had a look today at the 2.6L blower set-up on the black Ute, that little black unit (blower) on top of the engine makes some ponies, looks very good value unit.

Des Flurane · 16-05-2007, 07:26 AM

Good.

Sorry I haven't replied Chris. Yep the back roads are great, but not getting the chance to enjoy them enough ( been busy, and can't steal my car back from the girl).
Congrats on these kits. If I had the spare cash, and lived on your side of aus, I would be banging your door down.
Hope your success continues for a long time to come.

nzstuart · 26-05-2007, 09:10 PM

GT-P is going just fine... just have the need for speed!!!!

Miss the Turbo 6 Speed vs. the GT-P 4 Speed auto... find that when I'm on the track I'm loosing pace because the auto won't let me change down to first to keep the Boss within its somewhat limted Power Band hence my interest in the Blower.

Rang Chris so now just waiting waiting waiting
