I am starting on my new project this week.
My first car of 6 years. 1983 Volvo DL 244 4-Door Automatic

Cinco (5) de (of) Mayo (May) :-P is holding an
open import street drag at a near by road course/drag strip.

To start my project off, i need a reason for a new engine.

So, .. I'm throwin a Turbo + IC + 75shot Nos onto it until it blows.
(stock turbo setup from another 240 volvo)
(same for intercooler)
(common WOT ZEX kit for the NOS)

Here's a few questions:
1) Anyone have obvious turbo/NOS install comments. (I've searched NOS, none found)
2) What psi can I look to get
3) On this typical stock 150k motor, how many runs ya think i'll get before blowing up
4) Lastly, anyone else done a simular setup? Results good/bad?

lmao well to get a volvo engine to blow you have to work at it, and i mean really work at it, throw sand in the oil and itll keep running, wont even slow it down. lots of people have similar setups.

have fun with this.

Lean it out and run high boost. They don't seem to like that

It will take more than a 75 shot to kill it
