The turbo on the right is the factory TD04HL-12T from an S40... just for some scale :lol:

pretty sweet. Wait till you have to buy all the other supporting crap to go with it! Thats where I under estimated my little project. Braided stainless fuel line and AN fittings are 'spensive!:eek:

 

I have a ton of stuff already, just because the car didnt move... doesnt mean i wasnt buying stuf for it ;)

I am interested what all you can do with the S40. Do you have any good links related to them? My mom has one and I love how they ride.

 

You can do quite a bit... but it costs a pretty penny. Anything crazy, is also going to require you to hire a Swedish translator half the time... sometimes they speak understandable english.

Thats pretty cool. What kind of power can the stock motor handle, and what are your plans for the car?

depends on the tuning... a properly tuned engine can make around 300bhp or before you start running into bottom end failures. The power isnt the problem, its the surge torque.

 

Mine is back to stock... im not doing anything with it. All my efforts are going into the Z24 now... which is what the big ubercharger is for :burn:

I always thought it would be fun to build up a 850! I really like those cars for some reason.

 

850s are very nice cars. I think Mike (302 Powered) said he might pick one up in the near future. They really are awesome cars... you just have to take a little different approach to modding them than most other cars.
