[Jimmie]

Hey irf when is that car going to get round that bl--dy corner?.lol

[stainesy]

oh right. so what the deal with this 30 second over boost thingy the t-5 R has? and how does it work and when does it kick in?

[Enigma666]

define over boost? Generally this isn't a good thing mate. Have you got an MBC or something fitted?

[redbaron]

injectors not a problem but remap could be,could any idiot with a rolling road and laptop do it?see if you look at my location <<<< you'll see im nowere near MTE,will the car drive without the remap albeit badly?

also what is an MBE?

no the T-5 R comes standered with something that gives it extra boost for 30 seconds or something. something to do with modified turbo. thats what it says in the t-5 R spec anyway

Not a clue then mate, overboost is never a good thing though 9what were Volvo thinking tut tut tut)

Custom tuning is a posibility mate from any company, but there are only really 3 that would be classed as 'specialists' with Volvo....MTE is one, Rica and BSR.
You can send your ECU away to be remapped though. I am sure by now Marco (MTE Wizard) will have a map suitable for that combo already made up

Might be without your car for a week, although I 'think' Don @ Kalmar might have spare ECU's to map then you send him yours in replacement.
Failing that, get one of Ebay and send that for the mapping

something to do with your ecu stainesey. all the hardwares the same which is why, when remapped, it's exactly the same as a T-5.

Jimmie, what can i say, i'm a crap driver but a perfectionist at the same time. once i get the PERFECT line, i'll move on to the next corner

I have for sale a rica ecu that is specificaly mapped for the 19T on a manual 850 T5 with aircon, i had no problems with it and was running almost identical to WD's on the vt RR....it was mapped with the white injectors and me7 2.5" downpipe that i have for sale aswell.....if you get a 19T this will get you on the road straight away ....£350 + p&p for ecu, downpipe and injectors..

Bargain that is
Add on the cost of the turbo and you have a good what....330ish bhp for under a grand

yeah i have noticed that at low speed when i floor it the car is mind blowingly fast for about 30 seconds then is still fast but seems to slow abit. but by that time i could be doing over 100mph so it is pretty cool. in the t-5 R spec it says modified turbo with 30 sec extra boost facility. just wonderedhow it worked.

this is a copy of what it says

Modified Turbo
At the heart of the car is a modified turbocharging system for the
five-cylinder engine which gives an increased boost for no more than 30
seconds

have a full spec sheet i managed to get hold of but is to large to put on here.
will copy and past info in the 850 section. will call it T-5 R spec

[Wombatbomb]

For that 30secs the engine (when new and standard) produced 240bhp instead of the standard 225bhp.

I'd say a realistic 300 p.s M.B.E = Member of the British Empire...

[Enigma666]

It will still be ECU controlled....a turbo can't be modified to provide 30 seconds of extra boost, it flows what it flows, it will be part of the ECU program to say boost this much psi for this long

[Enigma666]

Surely the 19T is capable of more than 300hp?
The RICA remap for a V70R takes it to 340 doesn't it?

[stainesy]

have put the press release info of the T-5 R gull in 850 section now under T-5 R spec

tell me you're joking!...

just to add, did you have your foot down all the way? i could be wrong and would be happy to be corrected but i counted between 10 and 11 seconds 60-100mph. A standard EP3 civic type R will do it in 10 going from EVO magazine stats.

you also mentioned beating evos. which ones? A standard evo 7 with a quoted 276bhp which is heavier then the earlier ones will do 60-100 in 8 seconds, again according to evo mags stats.

[nathT5]

I've run a 19T for best part of 3 years in 3 different T5s without any internal engine issues (rods that is). The spool up is later but carries for a longer time.

at what boost pressure???



as for racing upto 30,
has anyone seen the old Ali-G film with the pimped R5 turbos racing from the lights - to 30?

Lol yeah the pair of them, East side Vs West side....funny as hell....when the silver one (Charisma styled I believe) hits like 32 and Ali ****s himself lol
