Cool volvo

They have a pill for that now:banana:

 

That guy is scary and the music from the commercials give children nightmares.

 

My puter wont even try to open the link....

Looks like it is a 850 / V70 engine in it, and the original header is too low to fit a bigger turbo, i suppose that the flow isn´t that good either..

 

Looks like a turbo to me.

 

NOW!

It´s a Volvo T-5R engine, with a M-90 gear from a 960 to get it rwd possible.. Havent found the specs of the turbo installation, but i guess that anyone with a better computer than me could look it up..

 

Hot looking wagon for sure.
SF, thanks for the warning. My Dell has been a little finickly lately so I'm not even going to attempt to go there. I think it might have some kind of virus because alot of times, it won't let me scroll up and down unless I right click it first and that only works sometimes. It's weird, because I've got a Norton anti viurs in it.

 

Sorry I didn't post the link to the original thread, it doesn't have much info anyways.
It's on the bimmer forum:
http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1713913

When I first opened the page I got one of those "virus checking" bs windows.

Please only use it at your own risk because I really don't want to post it here and have everyone's machine crashing like mine did. That may have been because I was linked to it from another forum and got redirected.

I tried to edit and clean up the link, seems to be OK now.

 

That's odd....my old DELL is doing a similar thing with scrolling.

 

That is odd, SF. About two years ago, it had a nasty virus because I had no protection at all on it, so I got the computer geeks in here, (they're the ones who drive around in black and white Beetles), who installed the anti virus and got the computer running lightning fast. I fear I'll have to get them in again to the tune of another $199.

 

How old is your DELL, snoot? Do you know what model? I've had some virus issues but now I'm pretty much protected. Sometimes it takes a few hours to find get rid of some of the newer malware etc but it always gets it.

 

I guess I got it around 2007/2008. It says optiplex745 on it. I also have a very old apple and that thing is trouble free. Never once gave me a problem or picked up a virus.

 

Yeah...the OS on the Apple is superior for blocking problems. People that create the viruses etc don't bother to do it for the Mac's. The market is so much smaller than the PC market. I almost bought a Mac as my first puter. I wish I had...I would have learned it all by now and been a lot more trouble free. I have a friend that has a Mac and he has no problems in that area. I bought a PC as my first puter because so many more people had them and I figured if I had trouble figuring out things I would have more help!

 

I have 2 wagons and one (wifes) is a Volvo. I like the look of this one.

 

The header was necessary for 2 reasons: his horsepower goals and the fact that no single-turbo factory manifold was available for the Volvo T6 engine. Have to go from scratch there.

The guy who owns this car is the Performance section moderator on Turbobricks, the Volvo forum which I'm also a member of. Unfortunately he's called it quits on this project and is in the process of parting it out, and bought a BMW 535i 5-speed to replace it, planning to twin-turbo it.

Too bad it's a sedan, too bad all around, I've been following this project since the day I joined Turbobricks in 2002. I was quite sad to hear he'd decided to part it out.

 

As for the Photobucket link, my computer specs are as follows:

AMD Phenom II X4 945 3.0GHz quad-core
4GB DDR2 800 RAM
nVidia GTX 460 graphics card

...and Photobucket bogs me down pretty badly. Their website is coded horribly. It's all Flash, for one thing.
