so here i was ripping through craigslist. stumbled across a 91 740 turbo wagon with a/t for 400. it didnt run. i go get it, get it home and he fuel pump is dead. i drop in a TRE 255lph hp unit bypass the stocker and she fired. no boost i inspect the stock 13c ate itself. so here we are again. another hooktastic mediocre volvo build.

the spec list
stock b230ft
MEATY tubular sidewinder manifold w/ 38mm gate
MEATY pie cut stainless vband 3 inch dp
MEATY 2.5 inch alum chargepipes with type s knockoff
ebay cosworth bar and plate cooler with the in/out modded by me.,
FAST 65LB/HR injectors
dodge 4 bar
master power 60-1
TLAO chipped 967 and 146 ecus
aem wideband
enem v15 cam and geAR

heres where i am so far. please keep the hatred and heckling to a minimum.:oogle:

tomorrow im going to hopefully finish the charge pipes i started and finish modding the cooler.

There's just something about a car with the aerodynamics of a refridgerator shredding the rear tires and hauling ass that makes me very happy. Looking to pick up a 960 wagon in the next year.

chipped fuel and ignition ecus. these cars have 2 separate ecus. bosch jetronic 2.4 wicked tunable.

no dyno tuning necessary/. drive it around and it learns. fucking crazy.. im pumped to cook the tires.
