I have boost, volt, and oil pressure

With the oil pressure you will need a special adapter so think twice before purchasing one.

 

I know, special sender, is it oil pressure for turbo or engine?

 

No the sending unit comes with the oil pressure gauge. I am talking about a special adapter that attaches to the sending unit and screws into the stock oil sending unit place. Oil pressure for the engine.

 

yeah, im going to go with oil temperature.

 

ok

 

I'm selling my BOV and pipe. And if you can't use the pipe the price is fair.

I am asking $125 + shipping. The BOV alone is worth more then that.

 

I wouldnt buy used bov, plus u said it might be leaking, and Im going to be 3rd owner

 

There is nothing wrong with buying a used bov. There is a problem buying a knock off bov or a turbo xs bov. Every model txs bov leaks, they are piles of ****. If you want a good bov, look into HKS, Greddy, or TiAL. I have run the Greddy and TiAL on my STi and both have held strong. The TiAL will be overkill unless you are running an immense ammount of boost (I am running a GT35R and it holds). The Greddy is quieter, and looks very nice. The TiAL is HUGE, sounds great, and looks great. If I had the choice of the two to put on a volvo, it would be the Greddy. The TiAL's sound/looks go with all the loudness of my STi (open turbo inlet, catless tbe, 12" wastegate dump tube) not the subtle sound of the volvo.

+1 on a wideband o2 sensor. It is the only tool that will let you know if you are ****ing your engine up while you are driving. Even if you are running a data logger, you still need a wideband to know exactly what is going on. A$300 gauge is cheaper than a new engine.

Thanks for info!

 

What about Turbonetics? Are they known for leaking? My friend is giving me his turbonetics raptor that he used on his SRT-4 and he says it will work on my volvo.

 

Any BOV can work on our Volvo's. It is just a matter of fitting it to make it work.

 

True most of them made for vw and japanese cars

 

Any "UNIVERSIAL" BOV will fit. Just use the proper flange and your set.

 

Is there a link on the resource thread to get the flange i need for the BoV?? I'm just sure where to find it at.

 

Well if you get an HKS SSQV you can probably buy the Aluminum flange from where ever you buy the BOV from. I know QBM sells the flanges for the HKS SSQV as well.

 

Hey, I have a question about boost/vacuum guage, I installed it and it was working fine, I connected it to the intake and put the vacuum line. But today something happenned to it, when I rev the enginethe arrow moves really slow with a huge laag. you know why it happenned?

 

Check all your lines. And double check them.

Are you boosting ok though?

 

im boosting like crazy, boost is good, im going to re-check all the lines

also what is you guage shows when u start the car, what is ur vacuum? mine stays at 20 or 18-19

 

Boost like crazy? Are you over boosting? What are you boosting to?

17-20 In Hg is good vaccum. Mine isn't good at the moment my BOV leaks thusly my vaccum is horrible.

 

Also, for some reason the guage shows thatmy 15g turbocharger only boosts up to like 7psi max, maybe because the guage is not 100% accurate or the ecu in the car is from 13G turbo and is set for 5-7 psi. dunno, mystery.
