Blitz Sus Core LM

I would just like to say that I bought and installed my new pod filter today. I'm a first timer with the pod, as I was a firm believer in the hi-flow panel filter in the standard box theory. Well, let me tell you now that I installed my pod, I ain't going back!!

I was accustomed to the sound of my slight induction noise, on boost, and a slight swoosh of my stockie plumb back BOV, when off the accelerator. I can now safely say that was a thing of the past.

I after I put the pod on, I took it for a test drive and I could not believe my ears!! This pod is so damn loud!! I know that a lot of you here have already experienced this feeling as most of you all run pods, but from my point of view it came as a shock. I didn’t think that there would be that big of a difference from what I had.

You hear the rush of the induction as the boost builds and then it turns into this surge of turbine noise and then I release my accelerator and Whooosh!! I suddenly have a BOV!! :wassup:

I want to also state that in terms of a power increase the car seemed the same as before, which is really saying something, considering that it is sucking in all this hot air. Also my temp doesn't move, whether I’m stopped at the lights or driving, it just sits where it's supposed to be.

I have to say the Blizt Sus Core LM pod is great, I’d hate to think how loud the Sus Power LM pod is, as this is loud enough and half the price. Also it filters a bit better than the Sus Power LM, which is a bonus.

Next on the agenda, heat shield and cold air intake.

:jump:

Good that your happy with it. Yep and a heatshield/partition will help alot in stopping so much hot air getting in

Well you won't notice the difference on your temp meter as thats only your coolant temperature! its not any indication of whether your engine intake charge is any warmer or not! That is what makes the difference in power.

You also probably won't notice any lack of power (if there is any) just by feel.. it will be on the dyno where it may be noticeable.

but yeah, its all about the noise.. its a noisy one!

Oh ok, i was not aware that the temp metre is reading off the coolant temp. But with everybody saying that they notice an increase in their temp when running a pod, wasn't that read off their temp metres?

The pod, certainly turns heads

Sorry to be a pessimist but that noise becomes annoying after a while. I noticed when I went back to the stock air box. It is fun stomping on the accelerator going past bus stops full of people tho

You say the pod has the same power output as a crappy stock filter in the stock box? What does that say about investing in a pod?

Pods are an absolute waste of money unless they have some sort of CAI. A hi po panel filter in the stock air box will out perform an unshielded pod all day at any rev. You must’ve noticed a severe loss of bottom end torque at the very least?
