more power............

[big shrek]

right im new to turbo cars,picked up my 1st turbo car (c70 t5) on saturday and i love it,thing is i wouldnt mind more power not a **** load more as need the car reliable and im not made of money

my info on turbos is.........zilch so im gonna need some help

can i turn up the boost a little bit without having to do anything else or will it mess up the fueling?

if it needs remapping where do i go to get it done?-im in the midlands

im planning a uprated panel filter,cat back exhaust-maybe a de-cat if it doesnt effect the running,its got uprated boost pipes already and a dump valve

does this seem ok for a bit more power?

if i do all these will it need remapping or an uprated fuel pump?

[Jamest5r]

In the Midlands HLM in Bromsgrove £150 for a map for your car.

Edit...this could go down hill quickly, i suggest you do a search for re-maps and read the many pages about various tuners and make up your own mind :).

[T5frankie]

can get a manual boost controller for £20

[LiamT4]

An mbc should be fine if you just want a bit more as the ecu has a boost cut at about 15psi, so shouldn't cause any problems.

Although i'm not sure what engine management is on your c70 (4.4 or me7), me7's can throw a wobbly with some mods.

how do i find out which one? will i need a uprated fuel pump or is the stock one ok?

ME7 has got no throttle cable or dizzy cap, also has a blue badge on the grill assuming its the original grill

Some like them, some don't. People have different opnions on which maps is best etc.

Quite the opposite mate in my opinion ive had several maps done there :) it's just some people get on there high horse's and cause argument's about various tuners for various reason's some justified some not but i don't get involved in that crap that's why i said do you research and talk to some people about what they have had done, all depends how far you want to take your tuning, but i warn you now once you smoke the crack pipe of tuning a t5 it never stop's :)

"a turbo will kill you and your wallet........it will never be fast enough..........you will want more and more and more........beware shrek-BEWARE"

think he was right :) i will give them a call but is it best to do it when ive got the exhaust and filter done so they can map it for those mods? uprated fuel pump???

fuel pump on volvos are good mate for upto 350 bhp no probs ,and the map only needs adjusting if you put a 3in downpipe and racecat mate

Your not going for custom mapping it will just be a generic map that has been done for your car with similar up grades, it is worth getting it put on the rolling road while you are there to see how it runs before and after.

You don't need an up-rated fuel pump the volvo one will do you fine for the moment save your money.

ok cool just wanna make sure it runs safe dont wanna blow it up

what sort of extra power would i get from a map from them?

is it worth de-catting or not?

[LiamT4]

Heres a thought, would my ecu work in his c70? Both 4.4.
Just your not far from me, so you could try it see if you like it.

decatting worked wonders on mine, do it if you have a long mot cos it will need going back on at mot time a remap should give you an extra 40-50bhp at 4000rpm and more importantly alot more torque

well its mot is up next june so plenty left and there is a custom exhaust place down the road from me so might go get a decat pipe fitted for a start,i take it it will make the 5 pot a tad louder

i wanna hear the turbo a bit more too any ideas as you cant really hear it spooling up all i can hear is the 5 pot burble

is a panel filter more advisable than a induction kit?

get it remapped get a big exhaust and decat it, fit an mbc turn it up to? mine was at 22psi lol and fit a big cone filter for the turbo noise, with all this at once your car will sound awesome (same as mine) lots of popping and banging

Remember the engine gives you power but the suspension gives you PLEASURE :D

[Ed.]

An off the shelf stage 1 remap will be sufficient for most people. Rica/HLM, MTE seem the most popular. They have slightly different characteristics, rica is aggressive, mte is more progressive. Usual gain with a stage 1 map is around 30bhp.

Custom chrome racing in nuneaton are good for exhausts. A polybush engine top mount is a must for more 5 pot noise.

yeah im taking it custom chrome for a decat they are only 5 miles from me,not being funny but how would a polybush engine mount make the car sound any better?

[Ed.]

It lets the engine noise and vibration into the cabin. At around £25 for the polybush, its the cheapest way to get more noise. It makes a big difference.

I'm quite local to you and have had work done at ccr too.

standard boost is around 10 psi with an mbc you can turn it up to 14 psi then you will need a remap to remove the boost cut then you can turn the mbc up to whatever you feel safe to mine was at 22psi, this is the mbc i have.

wasnt looking at spending that much more like 20-30 quid really

i think most people run at 16 psi after they get the remap with the mbc

[T5frankie]

A t5 engine is one of the very very best engines, my car is on 207000 and still goes like a rocket, volvos have the best engines and the best bodywork, how many other cars can you be worry free on a car with 175000 miles on?

nice one mate,guess im just a bit scared of ££££ing the car up ive heard that many stories of people messing with turbo cars and its altered the fuelling and done major engine damage

all i wanna do is

decat

mbc running 12/13psi
bailey dump valve

hopefully it should be safe with these mods

more like 250-260bhp with only 13 psi mate on a 16t, you will need a bigger turbo or if you want that power you will have to run about 18-22psi with that turbo

yes mate i think one or 2 have had a little more with other mods, but at 280bhp your car will feel so different and go like a rocket, you should have a go in a modded t5 and feel the difference, get the remap first then put an mbc on turn it up to 16psi which is safe then enjoy

my neighbour traded in his Scooby for a 911, within an hour they'd phoned him up saying the transfer box had scattered. We think someone on testdrive had tried a full throttle start (which i'd love to try on a strong enough car).

Partsfor volvos. Google it it'll come up. Excellent for most things and quick delivery.

I've got a dump valve, induction kit, powerflow cat back and mbc. Not bothering with a re-map cos the mbc does enough. Very very aggresive even turned down. I usually run mine about 9psi for day to day driving and only turn it up if I want some tyre shredding fun :)
Loads of power, loads of noise!

Hi all

Great thread big shrek and v helpfull replys!! Just what i wanted to know really I have not long bought a Dark blue V70 R and i wana get it up nearer 300bhp not that its slow jus that crack pipe ya on about needs a toot from me :-)

i dont want it to loud or any dumpvalve noises but more power and slighty louder would be sweet, think i'l decat it, get a remap an mbc and gauge, poly bush and turn it up to 18 to 19 psi does that sound about right?? i'l get it rolling roaded before and after the work

Also there are £120 cips on ebay from germany whats the story with these are they a no go or what people???

Mucho appreciated

Johnny

[LiamT4]

I'd stay away from any of the no name chips and maps that come up cheap on ebay.
Stick with comapanies like rica, mte, hlm.

cool will do!! im from nantwich cheshire which is the closest and better tuning company to go for and do i just ring them and ask for a re map ????

Hi all

Great thread big shrek and v helpfull replys!! Just what i wanted to know really I have not long bought a Dark blue V70 R and i wana get it up nearer 300bhp not that its slow jus that crack pipe ya on about needs a toot from me :-)

i dont want it to loud or any dumpvalve noises but more power and slighty louder would be sweet, think i'l decat it, get a remap an mbc and gauge, poly bush and turn it up to 18 to 19 psi does that sound about right?? i'l get it rolling roaded before and after the work

Also there are £120 cips on ebay from germany whats the story with these are they a no go or what people???

Mucho appreciated

Johnny

cheers mate but its all the other guys you need to thank.

as for 18-19psi from what ive gathered you will need a remap as the standard map wont go past 15 psi

im gonna turn mine up to 14 psi to see how i get on then consider a remap later this year

go to a reputable tuner
