so

i am going for a 19t turbo

a adjustable wastegate
heavy duty boost controller
vxr injectors
WOT box launch control
big front mount intercooler
hybrid blow off valve
stainless dual exit catless
cold air intake (short ram)
full silicone hose kit
full poly bush set
chassis stenghening kit
strut brace

the exhaust is going to be a dual exit with a high flow silencer on the left and a staight pipe on the right but with a electronic valve so the fumes will route through the silencer unless kickdown or when i press the button activates the valve allowing the fumes to go through the silcencer and the straight pipe

i am just wondering how much power i should be looking at? its a low miles well looked after car a 2.0t 180hp i see people getting around 240hp stage 3 but thats with not even half of the mods i will be doing to mine im hoping to see closer to the 300hp mark! i am not caring if the engine doesnt last long i have a 2.5t engine with 90k on it sitting in my other volvo that was vandalised by drunken idiots


i have ordered all of my parts so when there here i may do a build thread just let me know if u guys are interested

and any sugestions would be great maybe a mod i have missed out on?

 

 

 

 

so what sort of power am i looking at with these mods?i will eventually fit the 2.5 but the plan is to use the 2.0 as a test bed since the engine is modular,basically if i break something by turning thr boost too high or something its the 2.0 thats broken not my low mile 2.5!

so what sort of power do you guys think id be looking at with the 2.0 turbo?i want to push the engine as much as possible im not caring about longevity,also i need to ask what is the difference between the auto boxes for the 2.0 and the 2.5? is the 2.5 a different box stronger maybe?the engine came from a manual so i dont know but i have noticed the r or the t5 has a manual shifting mode making me think possibly theres going to be a gearbox problem with the 2.5? or will it be fine? also since its a modular engine i can just bolt it in but is the ECU tunable in the way it needs to be for the car to run properly?

thanks guys i look forward to hearing your opinions
