Re: 6 cars and buckets of cash later. hello b18ft
I used to have an immaculate black gtx, its was an absolute minter, apart from that horrible zeneth carb they chucked on there:crap:
if I knew then what I know now I would never have sold it, sold it for £400 and bought some coilovers for the raider.
always will have a soft spot for the gtx, it was the car sparked my interest all those years ago:smokin:

Thanks mate. Im looking forward to a trip to scoffs myself. First weekend driving the car. Im blown away. Its beyond any sxpectations i had. Think the t2 at 120 is really drivable.....
Re: 6 cars and buckets of cash later. hello b18ft
Awesome news :agree:
I really like these volvo motors now. The t2 is well suited for moderate power with next to no lag but i was at a point where i was wanting a bigger blower for my van. At 1.3 bar it would start pinking if youd been on the pedal too long. Better intercooling would have helped though.
Real pleased youve got it sorted mate :agree:

Re: 6 cars and buckets of cash later. hello b18ft
Thanks ross agree the t2 is perfect. Just running it in with standard boost. Ready for a trip to scoffs soon.

Re: 6 cars and buckets of cash later. hello b18ft
lso had the exhaust and turbo nuts keep coming loose. Finally managed to get all the nuts back on. Need to add a flexi to the exhaust. Car sounds awsome now and the power delivery seems better much.
