Default 740 tuning

my 89 740 gl runs good, but i want more power. mostly, i want more low end grunt. a rwd that cant spin out is kind of lame. what steps should i take? money is the main issue. what mods will get the best results? are there any mods that can simply adjust the power that is already there?

1. Does the GL have a turbo? Or no turbo?

2. What is your budget like to begin with?

3. What is your power goal?

4. You need to SEARCH. Look at my PINNED thread in GENERAL VOLVO DISCUSSION titled LINKS UPDATED.

If your N/A which means no turbo I suggest of cosmetic mods as you wont get much more power from a N/A engine.

Hello. I have 740 tic and I want to ask about the engine.
It's with a turbo and about 180hp +/-.My budget is about 2500$
and my power goal is about 300hp more or less.
I've searched in many forums but I didn't find anything. Maybe I don't know where. I hope for some help
