I’ve know Chad Block, the “CB” in CBRD, for a few years now. Chad’s had the fortune of competing in motorsports on a world stage. He’s run for the legendary Dyson crew, won at the 12 Hours of Sebring, driven in the 24 Hours of Daytona – the list goes on an on. The man knows quality parts and construction when he sees it, and that’s something we have in common.
A few years ago, Chad decided to take his passion for motorsports, and performance cars, and turn it into a business. C.B.R.D Speedfactory was founded to offer top quality service, installation and tuning, for popular performance cars.
Late last year, Chad contacted us about some new products he was working on, and we were very excited to learn of the developments. We’re now proud to offer these awesome products for your car! These are not just “me too” products. The offerings are specifically designed, engineered, and built here in the US, and the pricing is very affordable. These are designed for guys who want the right stuff, the first time, and who don’t want to be stuck on a Saturday evening wondering why the part they received doesn’t fit, or doesn’t look as good in real life as it did in pictures.
Two of the most compelling products are the new BBK Bolt On Turbo for the Evo, and the CBRD Aluminum Radiators for the Evo and WRX/STi.
The BBK Turbo is Chad’s answer to the ever popular bolt on upgrade for the Lancer Evolution. This turbo starts out as a new Evo IX unit, and then the compressor and exhaust sides are thoroughly reworked. The net result is a turbo that has it all. Great spool, fat midrange, and doesn’t taper off up top. If you’re looking for a great, stealth, bolt on turbo for your Evo, this is it! We can also offer this as a rebuild option for those with existing Evo IX turbo’s – contact us for details!
Here’s a nice video showing the production of the BBK Turbo
CBRD also does some awesome, hand made aluminum radiators for the Evo’s as well as the 2002-2007 WRX/STi. These are the same cores used throughout various forms of motorsports, including IRL and ALMS, are all TIG welded, and offer direct fitment, reduced weight, and improved cooling efficiency (up to 35%!) vs their stock counterparts. Check out their unit for the Evo….you can just see the quality with your own eyes.
We’ve already added a bunch of these parts to the site, and more are on the way. Chad’s recently begun work developing parts for the R35 GTR, and we’ll be sure to keep you all updated right here!
In the meantime, if we can help you with any of these awesome parts, just drop us a line. By the way, CBRD also sells ultra clean performance cars, so if you or someone you know is in the market for a safe, reliable source for your dream car, check their site out and give ’em a shout at www.cbrdspeedfactory.com.
