Blower Drive Service Air Intake Kit

Blower Drive Service Air Intake Kits: Supercharger-Focused Induction from a True Industry Pioneer

When it comes to feeding forced-induction engines, few names carry the weight of Blower Drive Service (BDS). Known more commonly as BDS, the California-based Blower Drive Service came to life in 1969 as a one-car garage, and has since grown into one of the most respected names in supercharging. Their air intake kits aren't generic bolt-ons — they are purpose-engineered components designed from the ground up to work seamlessly with roots-type blower systems.

Engineered for the Blower, Not Just the Engine

BDS approaches air intake design from a supercharger-first perspective. BDS produce not only supercharger kits, but also a range of accessories such as scoops and air filters, fuel injection kits, timing accessories, and replacement parts for their blower kits. This means that a BDS air intake kit isn't an afterthought — it's a calculated piece of a complete induction system. Their manufactured product line includes air scoops, belt drive kits, blowers and blower kits, fuel injection, electronic components, intake manifolds, and pulleys, all engineered to work in concert.

BDS utilizes aircraft-quality materials and electronic digital machines to manufacture the highest-quality blower components available. That same commitment to precision carries through to their air intake kits, where proper airflow management is critical to maximizing boost efficiency and protecting the blower itself.

Built for a Wide Range of Applications

BDS produces supercharger kits in a large range of sizes, starting from an entry-level 4-71, 6-71, 8-71, 10-71, 12-71, 14-71, and all the way up to a monster 16-71 kit, available for a wide range of engine makes including Chevrolet, Ford, Chrysler, and Pontiac. The air intake components in BDS's catalog are matched to these system sizes, ensuring the correct scoop geometry, filter sizing, and carburetor or injector compatibility for each application.

Street rods, street machines, monster trucks, mud boggers, drag racers, boat racers, truck pullers, tractor pullers, and specialty and custom vehicles have all chosen BDS components to feed their engines. Whether building a show-winning street rod or a full-competition drag car, BDS intake kits are designed to meet the demands of the application.

A System-Level Philosophy

What sets BDS air intake kits apart is the brand's deep understanding of how intake components interact with every other part of the supercharger system. Walk-in customers with questions are invited to sit down with one of the experienced BDS technical team members and walk out with a blower kit tailor-fit to their application and backed by a 2-year warranty. That same expertise informs every intake kit BDS produces — these are components developed by engineers who live and breathe blower technology.
