Back on topic,
Had my car put through the performance service yesterday, and they found a healthy 8.2 RWKW from their "little tricks".
Just shy of the 150RWKW now, but only have intake and cat back exhaust so I don't expect the world.
I highly doubt that my car will ever see a Ford dealer again, because it is worth every cent to take my pride and joy to someone who actually cares about what I want from a car.
Cannot recommend highly enough.
Thanks Chris & Theo, will have to get back into saving mode for the next mods (maybe)

any tips mate?

Hey Theo, I have a totally standard (other than a K+N panel filter) BF GT which has done around 25,000 km and has factory warranty till Jan '10. Would there be some horse power to found in my car and what would happen with my warranty? Thanks Lee.

Hey Lee..

Your factory warranty will still be intact as we can do log book servicing..
It will depend on how your car is driven and the type of oil being used currently on the gains with can be made..

What's done in a basic service?

Hey Doc...

Have a look at our dealer locations on our new website www.bluepower.com.au and give the closest one call and ask them about there there servicing..
The performance servicing is unique to BPR but all our dealers have the expertise to do this level of servicing at there workshops.

If you have any problems give me a call and i will help sort something out for you.

Theo@BPR

V8's suffer from the carbon/sludge build up more than the 6cyl do in the intake manifold but both suffer from throttle body build up.

Performance service still makes gains on 6cyl/turbo like the V8's do as there is other areas to tickle with while doing a service.

The 6cyl performance serivce i did 2 days ago the car picked up 18kw on the dyno after doing all the work..

We had the peformance service carried out on our recently purchased T3, which included the auto service. To say we are happy is an understatement.
The car did not come with service history so i wanted everything to be done right.
the car gained an extra 20rwkw after the second dyno run and the trip home was great. A lot more smoother all round.

Many thanks to Chris & Theo for putting up with us for the day and taking the time to explain things as they were doing them. My wife has picked up a bit of mechanical understanding.

People may think a $500+ service is expensive, but it is only a few hundred more than the dealer charges for a minor service on the RTV work ute, but you get a whole lot more in value.

Hey guys,

Just wondering how busy you are at Campbellfield at the moment? Looking to get a performance service one weekend in the next month or so, including some new gearbox fluid (Transmax?)
After a couple of poor experiences with Ford servicing, I think it is time to get the my T looked after by people who know what they are doing.

Cheers.

Hi guys

I'm planning on driving down to Melb from QLD in mid April and by the time I get there I'll be due for my 50,000K service.

Would this workout fine to couple the 50k interval service with the performance service? (Not sure if anything major is needed at this interval)

Thanks for fitting me in on short'ish notice guys. Car is in today getting the service done.

Felt a little bit silly booking it in for the perf. service when it's stock and only 47,000k's but thought why not. The peace of mind knowing the service will be of top quality and looked after will be well worth it.

@NFORCD - Haha, good to hear.

Picked the car up yesterday and couldn't be happier with the results. Really glad I took the time out while down here to drop it in, well worth it! Not just for the car but also myself by receiving some great advice and knowledge in the short time I was there.

Cheers Theo and Chris

Had my T performance serviced (40000km) yesterday down at BPR after always going to Ford. Couldn't recommend it more. 11rwkw improvement, along with everything else that needed doing on the car that i listed for them.

Chris and Theo are the sort of people you want looking after your car - they actually give a ********** and are happy to offer quality advice on top of their work. Thanks again guys.
