A front and rear spaceframed vx corsa shell for autograss racing.
Liam , James I've got to make the whole exhaust as it's not going in a Volvo so I think I will stick with the standard size dp then could always change it if need be.
Ooooh there like hens teeth m8 how much bigger is it compared to stock tb
Hi Duane what would be the best mods to make the turbo less laggy,what I've got planned is 3" dp into 2 1/2" straight through no cat and race silencer,mbc ,rip with large cooler pipes,k&n style cone...
That's what Im thinking if the 13g has a maximum of say 15psi surely the engine should be safe whatever the rpm used and the smaller turbo wouldn't produce big torque so less risk of bending...
Thanks guys the reason I asked is the 13g would spool up quick than the 15g .
I'm just exploring options the t5 engine I have will be racing on short off road oval track where turbo lag is going to...
Does anyone have any info on 13g turbo like maximum power it will deliver whats the highest boost pressure it can run what rpm does the turbo start working.
What is the difference between t5 engine...
Thanks guy's great help much appreciated.:wink:
Thanks mate , I'll put that on my shopping list,I will be changing the g/b oil after each season of racing as it will get a lot of stick.
I'm I right in thinking you need at least 2 litres for the...
Is that any brand oil or Volvo's own extorsionate blend .
Can anyone tell me what gearbox oil should be used in this box,I've heard only oil bought from Volvo should be used or you could have premature gearbox failure ???.
Had a set from a 2.5 n/a v70 they were blue but I'm sure they were denso injectors not Bosch so could be different flow rates.
I know what you mean mate time always plays a factor with everything my t5 autograss project always gets put last due to having other commitments and limited time.
Seems a shame not to put the worked head back on after having a machine shop check the face is true,if it had the wrong hg fitted hopefully that would of been all the causes of your problems.
Hope...
Cheers Paul won't bother then.
Anyone use or bought one of these,

A catch tank could replace the pcv system but you would still have to check there is no gunk in the exits from the block and cam cover , if your going to do that you may as well replace pcv or go...
I had this on my astra( rear discs ) it turned out to be the handbrake cable to the drivers side had rubbed through the outer cable and seized causing it to not operate,just a though worth checking ....
Thanks mate from what vie read the standard ecu's cut at around 15-16 psi so this should keep me on the safe side for now until some forge rods are purchased and a re-map.
Another question is can...
Cheers mate I'm trying to get a picture of what I can do modification wise and not end up with an engine tapping like someone sending morse code . At the moment it will be running a standard ecu with...
Thank's smithy so the increased torque at low revs induced by increased boost, what would be the considered level of boost that is classed as "safe" with WOT at low revs.
Obviously increasing power,torque and boost puts you at risk of bending the con rods my question is what is the single cause of bending rods is it too much low down power,torque or boost.alot of...
Smithy I think you've hit the nail on the head he is probably running a t34 because he replaced the cossie engine with the t5,don't really know the guy to well he races at our club but with me...
Hi Andy i was asking about the hybrid just out of curiosity really I know a guy running what is believed to be t3/t4 hybrid with an external wastegate on a 850 t5 engine (off road race car) and it...
