Three Fat Tigers Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 I'd give fcpgroton.com a call and see what they say, they often have the best prices on this kind of stuff. Otherwise I'd fab something up with parts from home depo and autozone. A little hard to tell from the washed out photos, but it looks like you have LH 2.4 fuel injection on that beast, you should convert it over to a turbo, everything would just bolt on and plug in, much easier to do when you start with 2.4.

Sweet! I'd say go for a: 98 S70 T5 manual: 6-8KWeitec Cup Kit: 650$RICA Chip: 750$ Rims: 600-800$ (can get lots of OEM 17's and 18's for around that)that's if the car is 8K, if it's 6K, add R front bumper, jewels, xc grille and full stage 0 (samcos, O2 sensors, cap/rotor, plugs, wires, coil, silicone vac lines)That'll give ya a car that is way faster than either a GS or a bimmer and with the weitecs will handle adequately, maybe not on bimmer status but close. Plus it'll be a Darn nice car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tupapison Posted July 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 I have a question, my friend has a 95 volvo 940 and her car doesnt have that hose, and also this 94 940 doesnt have it either, why does my car have it? <---94 940 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Three Fat Tigers Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 I don't know the protocols that Volvo used when deciding to implement that form of air injection, but your car may be an California emissions car. Otherwise the photo you posted is a car with the Regina fuel system, I don't think the Regina cars ever got the air injection, Regina is a very different fuel system using a MAP sensor instead of a MAF sensor, and an oxygen sensor that is very different from a normal one, acting like a variable resistor rather than a voltage generator.
