  1. Pioneer Deh-P3900Mp

    Posted 23 Sep 2009

    Single disc CD tuner. Pulled it out of my 99 s70 because I like the stock look. It is all wired for the Volvo and is plug and play.
    Detachable face, remote control. 50 wattsX4 (Pioneer specs). Seems to be a pretty nice unit with sub control and
    parametric EQ. AUX input.
  2. 850r Ecu Stock

    Posted 3 Apr 2009

    I want a stock 850R ECU as a spare.
  3. No Spark

    Posted 24 Mar 2009

    I started the car ( 97 R) yesterday and backed out of the garage about 3 feet when the car died. With the key in the on postition, the instrument cluster lights are all on and the radiator cooling fan runs non stop.
    I have fuel pressure at the rail but no spark at the coil.
    I am going to replace the cam position sensor with a spare I have and maybe the coil as well but I am concerned by the fan running and wonder if this is some kind of global ECU trouble. Thanks for looking
  4. Car Stalls

    Posted 26 Jan 2009

    I have a 99 S70 N/A. The car starts and runs fine but when you put it in any gear, the engine stalls.
    If you rev it and neutral drop it, it goes and the tranny seems to function fine. Am I looking at a torque converter
    or is the whole tranny shot? Other ideas?
    Thanks.
  5. Dyno Results

    Posted 26 Nov 2008

    Well, that was interesting. The folks at Cobb had a heckuva time running my car due to the tranny thing. Unfortunately, They wouldn't allow me to drive so that made it tough. I don't really know if I can use the data for much but I will send it to George and see what he thinks. The tech had such a hard time that he didn't even charge me a dime so I guess that's a plus. I aplologize for the poor quality of the scan.
    Basically though: Boost is off big time. If you superimpose numbers along the AFR line, starting at the bottom with zero and each line is 3psi, you have the relative pressure. The AFRs are lean and there is a weird dip at 5100 rpm.
    The numbers at the bottom are min. max. and average.
    Max HP is at just over 13psi. so much for my 19 psi RICA tune.
    Max torque is great but at 3000 rpm and still only 17 psi.

    I should add that this is uncorrected and at 4200ft. MSL

    I have some other graphs that are screwed up as well, one made 228 HP but in general, I seem to be way down on power and boost.
    Flame away, I know I have work to do.
