Re: What have you found on CL?

OK .. that's cool. The reason I mentioned it is because about 1/2 of Volvo owners don't really know what they have. It's not a judgement.. you understand. Just an observation. ECC .. environmental concept car. Premiered in 1992 electric/ gas turbine engine. Looks familiar...

Safe Boost Limits By Engine Chart

Hello friends! I was pondering what the safe turbo boost limits for each model were and it lead me to doing a little bit of math on everyone's behalf so that you can have an actual reference chart to go by.
