Re: 13g to 16t swap

13g to 16t swap

So I have the 13g with a straight housing(if its the right word) and I have a 16t with an angled housing. What volvo model downpipe do I need to buy to make it work? In my understanding I should buy like a -99 t5 downpipe right? Or is it an easy job to modify the stock dp to work? Otherwise the swap...

Ya, thats what I thought(try to keep out of boost/running rich) well the drive is 60km so... 40 Miles? Give or take

Re: More power out of b5254t(this has been done too many times I know)

I was just wondering is it safe to drive the car to the tuning shop, after installing bigger injectors, the new turbo and the japanifold? The stock tune should limit the boost so that it doesnt lean out right?

Re: More power out of b5254t(this has been done too many times I know)

I'm in the process of doing this, but it's not going well because I have somehow built a super16T that flows as much as a 20T :shock: Overflowed the MAF, bent some rods, overflowed the injectors, started knocking again :lol: When you say " super16T ", is that the set up with the 11 blade ...

Re: More power out of b5254t(this has been done too many times I know)

Update:
I was lucky enough to get my hands on a 16t for less than half the price!
I also bought blue injectors. Wooo, time to make (some) power! :D

And get a boost gauge.
Yup, ita cheaper to get a boost gauge, oil pressure gauge and a afr gauge, than it is to rebuild the engine xD
