LOVE THE VID .. I just think u should make the rear a BIT softer so it squats and shifts the weight more to the rear and u should lower the pressure in the rears when u drag so it grips more

Martas Kriz

And if you want some more power .. TWIN turbo it ..

Matt Cayton

How big is your gas tank vent? Usually turbo ls cars have pretty high fuel flow so they need a pretty good size vent like 8an-10an

Matt Cayton

I also think you might have too much back pressure. 3rd and 4th sound way long. That smaller exhaust housing is probably your issue.

Gingium

Gas tank vent is whatever the stock one has lol. It only happened after sitting and idling in the heat awhile. Clearly a heat issue

Gingium

The car has a pretty long final drive: 3.55. But yea, turbo is definitely too small. It’s the 7875 with the .96 back housing

Matt Cayton

Alright if you have to drop the tank at any point I’d still go bigger if you can.

Matt Cayton

The 1.25ar housing is definitely what I’d go to. Pretty sure your exhaust outlet charges to 4 inch but it’s worth the change.

Gingium

Yep that was my plan. If not upsize to like an 80mm with the 1.25ar. What engine/turbo size is yours againv

Matt Cayton

6.0 lq4 with 9/1 compression. Gen3 billet 78/75 with the 1.25ar exhaust side. Car coughed out nearly 1000wheel at 20 pounds of boost. Spooled pretty fast for the absolute abomination of a turbo kit I put together.

Gingium

Yeah that’s another thing I need to do. 93 just ain’t doing it for all this power. 22psi of boost for 760hp. What ecu do you have?

Matt Cayton

Terminator x max with DBW. My god I didn’t realize you were still on 93 just changing over to e85 on that car will be a pretty big change. Exhaust housing will definitely be to small but running mid 11’s on pump 93 is pretty good.

Gingium

So do you just run straight e? No flex fuel? That’s the only thing I’m worried about. E85 isn’t super common around here. Also, what’s you valvetrain look like and how high do you rev?

Matt Cayton

I do have a flex fuel sensor so I can pretty much run whatever but I mostly run pump e85. Valvetrain is all BTR. .660 lift springs,chromoly pushrods, trunion upgrade, heads are 317 with larger intake and exhaust valves. BTR stage 2 turbo cam.

Gingium

I see. I don’t believe I have any more input/outputs left on my terminator, but I’ll have to check. What’s your redline?

Glenn9K

I'm so surprised with the poll results so far, I can't believe people actually wanna see this car with an auto trans :( Sure, it may be faster but takes away the driver skill requirement and a lot of the cool factor.

Matt Cayton

6800. I can’t remember all of what you have but this is how I have mine. Inputs: flex, dome pressure, 2step, open Outputs: fan 1, fan 2, boost plus, boost minus

Gingium

Time for me to check haha. Thank you for all the help!

Matt Cayton

No problem let me know if you need anything else!

The T56 could work?? Is a good (I think) transmission, a secuencial gearbox?? Maybe?? Dunno, I think the suspension was a bit off to I mean I think it need to be softener so it grip better, I think it will be better a good manual setup that a auto.

James

are you putting pressure on the shifter before you shift? I do that with my crappy Volvo manual and it actually shifts into gear better. might be wearing down the trans but whatever. makes my 100hp car feel faster

Paul Easter

I wonder if it's the trans mounts/driveline stiffness. If the T56 isn't staying solid during shifts it could be preventing you from slamming gears properly. There are plenty of fast cars running the T56.

Greg Rhyne

I really love the Volvo man. Sure it’s not the cleanest car you have, but it’s unique for sure. I’d love you to keep it and work the kinks it has out. I can’t remember what kind of trans mount you have, but that could be making it difficult to shift. My T56 shifts pretty good, but it’s also not making the kind of power yours does and it’s not swapped.

Kyle Anderson

Childern, what did we learn today?

Kyle Anderson

Don't screw with the boosted Honda that looks unsafe.

andreas sørensen

get a new trans for the volvo, we wanna see that thing beat the ricebox

skevin

IF selling to one of your super awesome patreons, what would the ballpark be? #askingforafriend
