I'm in Perth and was wondering where I can get the bluepower intake for my BA XR8?

Cheers.

Is there a trick to installing these?

I recently bought one second hand for my 3V but as far as I can tell there is what I think is an airconditioning pipe in the way down the right hand side (engine side) of where the side of the airbox should sit.

Also is the windsreen washer bottle relocated or does it fit inside the airbox?

What do you do with the oil breather line that plugs into the OEM intake at the throttle body?

Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,

The windscreen washer bottle remains in its location, with the fill tube residing under the lid.

The airconditioning pipe needs to be pushed away fom the airbox, it requires adequate clearance or it will wear through.

Bluepower 3v kits are supplied with an A.C.E inlet pipe - this has a fitting supplied for the said oil line, however if you purchased your kit from Paul (CVE) he has made up his own system, might be worth PMing him so you get the lowdown on what to do.
