Volvo V40 T4
OK, so here's my car&mods.
The car is a Jan 2000 V40T4 (B4194T2 engine, the last of the 1855cc's)
Performance mods:
- Hybrid turbo (Machined TD04-14T with Big16G compressor wheel) @ 1.5 Bar
- Aquamist 1S waterinjection (currently just used for extra safety above 1BAR)
- Bigger fuel injectors 441cc/min Bosch (Stock injectors were just 312cc/min)
- JT-tuning 3" downpipe/sportscat/exhaust
- PiperX Viper Cold Air intake
- TME custom remap
Result: 3rd gear (1.3BAR) 275HP 430NM 4th gear (1.5BAR) 292HP 406NM
(Measured when ambient temp was 30 Centigrade)
Handling/stopping mods:
- Koni yellow sports shocks in the front (stock volvo in the back)
- Volvo strutbar
- Tarox g88 breakdisks + tarox pads + braided steel brakelines (not installed yet)
- Toyo proxes tyres, which gave me a LOT more grip than my previous Michelins
Other "Investments :-) "
- Boost gauge.
- Hours & hours & years of internet-research.
TBD:
- Bigger IC
- Samco hoses between turbo/IC/trottlebody
