    Rufio' s S80

    Now sold my Corsa and got a new car 2.5td Volvo S80. Going for a sleeper. So lots of engine mods in terms of Superchip, bigger turbo, Exhaust etc. Exterior: Lowering, Tints, Possibly new alloys, Debadge. Drove it for the first time on Saturday and so far love it. Thought i would post a thread up so you can follow my progress:

    Yeah still getting used to the parking lol. It has a little computer unit which works off the throttle pedal and tells the dump valve to release when needed.
    I got a little video but not too good as running from stand still so the Dump vlave hasn't spooled up all the turbo. Better sound when more use of turbo.

    I think its hilarious.
