yea, but the C30 is so f ugly that it's almost like a joke.

hello... i was wondering if a BOV would do any good on a GearTronic S60 T5...? what do you think?

hello,

currently i'm running a 3" downpipe with no cat, which throws the "emission system service required" code on my dash once in a while. i'm quite sure the performance of the car is not...

well if all this additive does is make the oil thicker, why don't you use a thicker oil from the start instead of it anyway? :wavey:

I'm sorry if this has been discussed before but i did a search and couldn't find any threads concerning this.

Here's the link : http://www.quickbrickmotorsports.com/prod_camtool.html

anyone...

you could brake-boost and launch of course if you don't have mercy for your car :)) but i guess that will only increase your rate of wheel spin !

He might be expecting a horsepower / torque comparison between a BSR upgrade and a RICA upgrade if i got it correctly. :B_steerin

you did very well indeed :) with just a 3"dp, exhaust and chip, you'll be well over 300 whp.

you're right... it's no use... but i guess that brings us back to the question of why make a 250 bhp car FWD in the first place, instead of RWD or AWD...

producing a certain power, and then...

hello Adam,

i see... but then why limit 2nd gear too?.. it's not till 60mph that the T5 comes to itself and starts to pull like it really should. really annoying isn't it?

as far as i know...

i'm surprised that you're so happy with the performance of your geartronic T5. not that i don't like the car myself, i really like it, but doesn't it bother you that it has the torque limiter in the...

hey. congratulations :)
is it a manual or a geartronic ?

don't know. no dynos here. no tracks either. :(

but it's an S60 T5 geartronic... with a filter drop in, 3" dp and 3" till the mid resonator with no cat. custom superchips @ 1.2 bar.

my...

hi...

apparently you're insisting on doing this without the ECU upgrade, which would have been the right way to go as Adam said... which is ok since it's not my car you're messing with :) j/k
...

hi, you should definitely go for the manual version if you can mate. especially if you're planning to mod it...

wow mate that's really heavy ! :confused:

i mean i checked out www.wheelweights.com and there doesn't seem to be many other wheels heavier than that in the 18 X 8 section.

imagine how faster...

that's exactly what i need...

since the title of this thread is alloy wheels, i'll just go ahead and ask, anyone know how much the 17" pegs and the 18" pegs weigh?

help me anyone?

hi everyone,

i'm a little confused and have a few questions. sorry if these have already been discussed before, but here they go :)

why is everybody upgrading their turbos to 19Ts? why not...

hi... if you're looking at more serious mods in the future, i say, go 3.5" and straight through all the way, sticking to the original exhaust design but losing the middle resonator. ( if not, go for...

:) ok then... good luck mate. will be waiting for your results before i do this.

hmm... sound in exchange for power...
:)
ok then, how much power do you think you lost there?
i think i'm being inticed to try a cone filter on mine :troutslap

and i do not want to restart a...

hey all :)
my very short list of mods so far is :

- JR panel filter in stock box
- 3'' downpipe & no cat
- superchips custom software @ 1.2 bar (peak boost 1.4 bar)

thanks & all the best,

hi...

from your description, i get that it is a geartronic S60 T5 right mate?

well, volvo says the gearbox oil is not to be changed, unless it is "seriously worn out" due to bad use. but i...

:)
what are you planning to do next?
with the mods in your sig, you should be pushing around 280 whp if i'm not mistaken? i assume that's about enough to embarrass an M3.
your car is a manual...
