Hi All, ive been a member for awhile but havent had a project to work on, well i now have a 1990 745T MANUAL Factory! I have since aquired a 93 B230FT Engine with Turbo, i understand the Turbo on the 93 Put and additional 18HP than the previous Mitsu, my fist gear is really short, this is the first manual Volvo i have owned, its kinda pointless to even have the turbo engage in fist gear, should i stay with the Mitsu or go Garrett? another completly diff turbo? I have am taking the 93 block and Head into the machine shop soon to have everything done i might even replace the pistons and connecting rod's but havent decided on that yet. I would like to get everyones input on this i want to pump all i can into this engine, i plan on putting a bumber sticker on the back that says You've Just Been Passed By A Volvo if that tells you anything!
