well, one of my friends built a volvo up. here's his specs
(His Words, Not Mine)
Standard B23 (2,3 liter) engine bottom from 1984 modified with oil-jets for piston cooling from Mazda.
Modified standard pistons from B23ET (760 turbo - 1984) for 7,5:1 i compression.
Modified cylinder-head with standard valves. Double valve-springs. More or less standard camshaft from carburated B21.
Big Intercooler
Gt2540 BB turbo
Ported exhaust-manifold and modified to fit the turbo.
Homebuilt intake-manifold
Getrag M50 gearbox
Double sinter-clutch from AP-Racing
Wheight balanced conrods from standard B23
8 injectors at 375ml/min each
Haltech F9A for fuel and Electromotive HPV3B for ignition. Fully tuned of owner himself without dyno (just highway, lambda-meter, exhaustgas-temp meter, my ears for knock-detection and so on.....)
he's pretty happy with the Haltech FMS, its got a lot more powerful features than the Simple Digital Systems setup, cause the SDS is handheld, where as the Haltech uses RS232 comm protocol managed from a laptop.
here's some videos of him laying the smack down on a E-code E36 M3 Evo, 321 hp.
