TurboLX · June 14th, 2007, 05:26 PM

so you posted it here, he got 537hp from that

MSO · June 14th, 2007, 05:28 PM

yea but no1 cares, aparently lol

and how much torque?

TurboLX · June 14th, 2007, 05:30 PM

so let me explain this for people who dont know, its a Mustang SVO which came with a 2.3 liter turbo which rated at 205hp, in 1987 SVO had came up with an idea to put a DOHC on there 2.3 turbo engines, so they did but they stopped production because it made MORE power then the V8's, it made a total of 275hp stock, so some guy named Cosworth found out that the early style 2.3 16v volvo heads fit on fords 2.3 with some minor mods, so now this is a common swap for a lot of 2.3 guys, this one here is the first twin turbo volvo head combo yet and makes extreme power...any questions just ask

I mean yeah its cool and all, but take that turbo off there and what does it have? I would rather build something that can run N/A...Then lower the compression and throw a turbo on it.

Dennis · June 14th, 2007, 06:13 PM

you know i must say that right thur impresses the hell out of me considering a 4 cyclinder putting down 500+ hp where do i sign up for one of those

Tony_90fox · June 14th, 2007, 06:33 PM

well u can get agressive cams and raise the compression while stroking it to a 2.5 and, n/a, it shud produce more than 300hp.. u can get the n/a 2.3 to ~250 lol

MSO · June 14th, 2007, 06:51 PM

TurboLX · June 14th, 2007, 09:41 PM
