How does the ford dealer view this? ie. original airbox is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes a really deep sucking sound when installed.The dyno results when I had only the SS fitted was :Standard: 226.4rwkwSS induction: 236.0rwkwHope this helps, Rob...Now Rob, that's what I call the best of both worlds!!! All we need now JB, is the sandels to reduce the weight and give the car a couple more kw's You where the one that made me get the 2nd CAI after that ride JB :lol: Rob...

I appreciate all your feedback. Does anyone know the price of the BPT kit? How does the ford dealer view this? ie. original airbox is gone.VIBE my understanding is you can buy the different bits as you require. You may be able to source the XR8 setup cheaper from your dealer and get the T peice from Battens, it's up to you.From a dealer perspective it looks more factory than the SS setup as all the parts bar one are Ford parts, all you have to do is take a look at the pic.There are a few on the forum who have done this, maybe they might like to post their thoughts on the battens set up?Your first thing you should is get an aftermarket filter, K&N or BMC that should make a difference even before the 2 Cai setup.

Apparantly the hotter it gets in the engine bay the worse it is.I went for the XR8 Pod filter with the duel intake in the end. very happy with it.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Does the xr8 pod setup alter the induction noise any over the standard T airbox?Dazza.

Took about 15 mins, cost $12.95. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
