Glady Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 Hey guys… I would just like to ask some few suggestions regarding this Volvo performance chip I’m planning to buy. Do you think this one is good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0k0 Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 what is a stage 0...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rbphot Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 what is a stage 0...?That's where your at when you first meet the new guy/girl in your life No really, Stage 0 is replaceing all the bit's like distributor cap/ignition leads etc to bring your baby back up to spec, everyone needs to do this before the have any tuning done to get the best out of it.

Mine came at something ridiculously high above .40, started getting problems, got iridiums and dropped the gapdown to .32 and haven't had any problems.Also a good thing for any turbo car... replace all vacuum lines and zip tie at every junction. they can leak boost under WOT and make you lose power up top, better safe than sorry... don't want to blow any vacuum lines off!

Denovae Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 .32 gap on the SRT?Yep. 22psi, will make you do that. better safe than sorry. runs like a dream now, no spark cut, idle is a little bubbly but that's to be expected on that car.

What whp are you running on there gotta be close to 300whp at 22 psi I've read 320whp is achievable on the stock turbo on the SRT4's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What whp are you running on there gotta be close to 300whp at 22 psi I've read 320whp is achievable on the stock turbo on the SRT4's.maybe 300bhp but definitely not whp. I have to get a new intake, mine is stuff, replace intercooler piping and get a better intercooler with a better BOV, and a 3" cut-out cump DP and i should be right around 300whp. Stock turbo SRT-4s with only boost have seen 320whp on DTEC and 330-345 on EMS, but the nitrous ones have been able to hit almost 375. The problem is for the stock ECU guys that it registers a difference in front wheel velocity and rear wheel velocity and pulls timing, so that coupled with the lack of sufficient cool air for the intercooler (a problem with all dynos) decrease power slightly.

We did an E-manage on my friend's 05, car made about 338whp. Then I put a 100 shot on it... 450whp and 494 whtq was fun on 17" street tires. I used to get serious spin out of that car on 3rd gear 80 MPH rolls.What is the stock turbo on those?Mitsubishi TD04LR-16GK-6cm2Reverse scroll 16G. My biggest gripes are the o2 housing and the integrate manifold. Aside from that, the car was a breeze to work on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
