View Thread : Volvo.. mor hp


Mercury
well i went and picked up a boost guage and a bleeder valve today .. im planning to raise the boost on the volvo to 12 psi or so .. see how she moves then.

its pretty simple.. ill let every one know how it turned out

interesting hopefully I can get some time off work to see how it works but I don't know things are nuts right now

Bimmer
Are you sure that the pistons can handle 12psi...I would go with 10 to be on the safe side.

Black Ice
true it would suck to blow the motor

Mercury
i have been looking into things..

"safe boost levels of as much as 15 psi should be possible without any fuel system modifications"

so ill give 12 a try for now.
and go from there

but thanx for looking out for me guys.. it nice to see some one cares if i have to push my new DD home
