add 850 for that pimp intercooler and intercooler pipes from doug and there ya go
-
haha so i was right ... 260whp .. just they used a manual and still barely made that much ... haha lot of $ for not a whole lot in return, i bet 3k spent right could make a lot more power nice to see them offer it as i'm sure a lot of people will be picking up the kit.
-
w/o and intercooler i do not think it will make more than 260whp
-
only if it has and engine and trans and rear axle in it ... being i need the engine there and then i need an exhaust manifold and turbine housings i have ... and then the trans and all that jazz needs to be there to do a proper AWD down pipe .. and then remove that stuff to make normal fwd down pipe's haha call the time @ the shop for the frame pull $3k ... $300 for a used hood, $100 -200 each for used fenders .. and center support .. what else is damaged? i say take the 9k .. spend 4k to have it fixed ..and have 5k for the 240
-
you should send the car to me so i can build a bunch of AWD downpipes and exhaust systems sucks to hear tho ... what was the cars value .... a frame pull might not cost that much

I Have Troubles With Removing My Rotors

you just need a larger hammer ... -
haha are not like two of the 13 sec cars RWD cars ... we all know how easy it is to make one of these cars quick or @ least into the 13's ......
-
it usually is for most products ... seems to be the theme here on VS tho ... RIP's and now weitec... i wonder what else is out there ..
-
so how does that hose bring 'cold' air into the ECU's if all of that air is right off a hot jerk radiator? yea sure while moving things can cool down a bit .. but they still will be hot ....
-
good excuse ... forgiven
-
take pictures of how it doesn't fit and demand a replacement, have him fly out and show you how it fits .. if its fits perfect you'll pay for his plane ticket .. otherwise if he says its fits perfect and it doesn't ... this is the reason i sell parts cheap so if it doesnt' fit people can take thier bitching someplace else as they paid 1/4 as much as the rest of the world for something that works just as good
-
someone is a little behind the news(Darn bots) .. this was known like a month ago ... geez
-
no
-
how much for the whole car?
-
yay red stripe?
-
i don't know if i've seen yours ... how else does one route intercooler pipes but over the engine .. sure you can do it behind it under the torque mount .. but where else?
-
i've only ever seen one fwd I5 volvo intercooler pipes NOT go over the engine .. and it went behind the engine and under the strut mount .... i mean even OEM goes over the engine .. both styles ... and going over the engine doesn't mean stuff as long as you have a good intercooler in there and the cold side pipe goes from under the car to right up into the TB
-
good to know i saw 3 93' 850's yesterday ... they are very interesting on the front spoiler ... looks like it might promote flow to a FMIC
-
am i the only one who think that looks like a 93' bumper?
-
actually they use the same block, same head, same crank and same rods, ... only thing that differs is the pistons and the only thing different there is the height to make it higher CR .. so it will last just as long as a normal T5 engine just keep it from detonating and you will be fine
-
if you do this ... you'll find you'll be a fair amount quicker than another stock T-5 because of the increased CR on the LPT motors you will make a fair amount more torque and power @ the same boost/rpm .. turn up the boost and it will become very quick
-
you mean you couldn't take pics of the downpipe with it off the car?
-
no pics? someone ban him untill he has pics
-
pics?
-
because on most all turbo cars when going from smaller to larger ID downpipes you will pick up 1-2 psi if not more
