Well your time wasting is just on your own accord.. my problem is related to a broad. Big poking surprise eh?!

Ahhh women, the cause of most alcoholism... in the middle of an alcohol-soaked week myself, cheers!

Have been driving the SD-C a lot lately. Great fun but pretty stiff car to drive..

I think for now I have come to a point where the power as it is OK for the time being. 0-100 km/h is possible in 5 seconds but not recommended if if one likes to keep the driveshafts in one piece. 80-120 km/h within 3 seconds (Flying starting at ~75 km/h) 100-200 km/h in 11 seconds. Top speed not measured yet, ~235 km/h so far although I believe I have taken it higher once but was occupied with other things.

Max boost at the moment 1.25 bar. Blue injectors, stock T5 FPR, stock NA fuel pump. This is about as far I can get with a 12:1 AFR target and initial 11.5:1 fuel enrichment. Weight of the car was measured at 1490 kgs including some 20 ltr's of fuel before replacing the E-adjustable seat for a Sparco. This weight was entered into a Racelogic "Performancebox" GPS performance meter and after measuring the losses the box told me the engine power is near 290 crank HP at the moment.. To date the car didn't see a dyno.

The downsides so far, some parts are really coming at age after 517000 km. The car left me standing last week after the coolant temp went up from ~90 degree C to 150 degree all of a sudden. New temp sensor made things going again.

Not many things have changed since the last update. Car is running on now almost worn Kumho V70A's on TDR 17" rims.

Future changes will be a new coolant reservoir. Lower engine mount will receive powerflex bushings. Catchcan for the crank ventilation system will be added and I'm thinking about removing the whole interior after the summer.

That really proves the longevity and durability of our Volvos...I've always liked your cars, always pushing the envelope!

so i think i am going to get the 15 inch macbook pro. i don't really even need it but it's $200 more than the 13 inch macbook and it has a faster processor and stuff. probably going to get it in the next couple of days.

Best purchase I've ever made, using it right now. Go with the 15.
