norcal505 Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 snygg tva farti!! I have a 91.5' 245 GLT B230F (soon +T ) and M47. My goal is to get the car full euro-spec, and a lot more. I have a lot of SAM stefansson parts, and TME springs. I've been looking recently at LG Volvo, and Realcar I love it! is that volvo-orignal 609? Are you on the turbo performance klubben? Here's my 245...my family bought it new sverige, in goteborg. then, it was in vasteras for a while, I used to live there (briefly). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugsley Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Project Thread "Kjelle" homepage XD3TE engine with M46 gearbox. The XD3TE must be an electronically controlled version of the XD3T I put in my 81. Im puzzled why he put that engine when he could have used the VW 6 cylinder engine which was factory installed on some of those cars. It might be a better engine ?

norcal505 Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 agreed. I have seen people turbocharge the D24 engines....on my forum. here's one very interesting high performance diesel 240 build... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d00zer Posted July 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 norcal505: It's not mine. Just found the link when I was searching for engine swaps. And I tought I will share the link due the 505 content Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugsley Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 agreed. I have seen people turbocharge the D24 engines....on my forum. here's one very interesting high performance diesel 240 build... 740s were available with turbo diesels from the factory. I was told neither of these engines were good engines, but the the 4 cylinder versions did pretty well in those old Rabbits and Jettas.

norcal505 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 yeah, but that was a 244 (or 264) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugsley Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 yeah, but that was a 244 (or 264) They did put that engine in 240 series cars, but without the turbo. I dont have a problem with him putting the engine in, I guess he already had the engine ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norcal505 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 ah, your correct. but they had slightly different specs. my guess is he might have already had the engine. the thing is, as you know, volvo's are very plentiful in the motherland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
