VulvaS40T4 Posted April 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Those are Special edition 17" wheels for latest x40 volvos 2003-2004 year made by bbs for volvo and very light weight also. I ran these end of 2017 and no problems and no cracks. 16" wheels bbs are more common and these 17" are very rare. Volvo stock color for these was like darker gray and because these are used wheels there was some stone marks on paint and looked no good. Now paint is bbs normal brighter color which i like very much. :) I did retard exhaust cam 0.5mm for this year to get more aggressive spool and will test it more when summer comes here maybe next month when snow melts. :) Spool is good and no need for more modern turbo because then engine will brake :D 650nm is maximum torque which it hold in long term. Have driven now 10000km on this engine and no problems :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonardo Alberton Me Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 Your car and your work is just amazing. I love these cars, here in Brazil my cousin and I are thinking in a M56 conversion, because he own a v40 that are automatic, and I am just courious, what did you do about the transmission to handle this numbers of power, or it is stock, and you just change the differential?

Grzegorz Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 Hi, you did a brilliant project with this T4 :) What exactly do you have M56 h or l? Which Quaife model do you have in your M56? Did you have to do anything in the gearbox to insert Quaife? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
