Christ, what an amazing piece of work!

Interesting to see the developement too - when I saw the first plenum I thought "terrible design, will get poor mixtures for the rear cylinders", then as I scrolled down later on they changed it to a more correct looking design!

Nice bit of kit and shiny too

Got a rev counter like mine :cool:

About 500bhp from what I can make of the graphs towards the end of the thread. Looks great. Not a clue whats going on in half the pics but I know I would love to be able to do things like this myself. If only I had a largeish garage... hell any garage at all would be nice

Simply fantastic! Great talent to get that quality.

I WANT ONE.

Simple as that :cool:

thats pretty bonkers - whats with the DIY throttle body/turbo thinger? Am i being silly but surely thats not the best way to bodge together an intake?

regardless theres something insanely attractive about throwing such large amounts of shiney bits at an old volvo and turning it into such a damn beast!

An amazing amount of work has gone into that. Could you even call it a Volvo anymore?

the machine is a work of art, and the turbo is huuuuge (163mm)

its a slight rough estimation but to be running those numbers its gotta be around a 1000 ponies

(edit just checked out their website and it was dyno'd at 952hp @ 8300rpm)
