wizzard_al Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 This is the same basic engine Volvo used in the BTCC, first in 850 wagons, and then later in S40 sedans. Of course, it was not turbo, and had compression around 13:1 or something like that, and had lift of nearly 21 or more mm. Head was custom, but still fit BTCC regs. Produced reputed 325 hp, when everyone else was around 285-300 maybe. Nice for non turbo engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Custom rods and crank with smaller 40 mm diameter or so big ends made by Pankl. Pistons were of the skirtless type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nari Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 Oh, ok sorry I thought you mean the 2.0 T5. I didn't know some countires labled them R. Nope... 2.0 T5 - 210 hp 2.0 R - 225 hp OK, the engine is basically the same engine as the 2.3 engine, except for the crank being 77 mm instead of 90 mm stroke. .... Since the cams for both T3 engines are the same, I'd say you found your 225 hp engine in the B5204T3. Unfortunately, VIDA gives me a part number for the turbos, but doesn't say which model they are: 12T, 13T, etc. My 2.0T5 had a 13G The 2.0R had a 16T (v70R) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johann Posted March 27, 2013 Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 Oh, ok sorry I thought you mean the 2.0 T5. I didn't know some countires labled them R. Well, I need as much infomation I can get on these B5204T3 and B5204T5 engines. If both of them are based of the solid 2.3 T5 and not the updated / facelifted delicate engines then I will truely be happy! The low pressure turbo B5204T5, 180 hp, is based on the 2.4 LPT engine. Is has a 77 mm stroke and a 83 mm bore. Rods are 152 mm long. Compression is 9:1. Basically the weak engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
