JCViggen's 850 T5-R

[The Flying Moose]

Been spending alot of time pondering what the next step is with the car and came accross JCViggen's profile on youtube and other Volvo forums. Really like what he has done to his motor. Wondering if a similar spec to his is worth considering in the future. Judging by some of his videos on youtube he is a pretty skilled driver too. I could only dream of an 8.04 around the ring.

The car spec is as follows:

Should have the turbo this week, and modify the manifold to take it,then going to start cleaning up the engine bay, its a bit mucky after 15yrs of engine grime

BT's picking up a good pace & almost on target lol, i'm already fully booked at work till June so try & start keeping some time free

Well money would be my only factor but hopefully if I start saving I should have enough for the expected £300 fuel bill.

[WOODY T5]

put me down on that list em

[The Flying Moose]

£300? I thought Nurburgring was in Germany not Coventry?

Jesus you have fuel problems! Its roughly 500 miles each way so 1000 miles total. £300 divided by the current £6 a gallon for V-Power is 50 gallons. Now 50 gallons based on 25mpg is 1250 miles, even if you only done 20mpg on route its 1000 miles of fuel. Should get there and back I think!
