Hi Kyle! I saw! Makes me miss portland Volvo shens.
Hello Guest, welcome to the initial stages of our new platform!
You can find some additional information about where we are in the process of migrating the board and setting up our new software here
Thank you for being a part of our community!
Me too! I don't do Volvo shenanigans much anymore at all. Do you remember specs for your setup at that time, by any chance? I can add more information to my notes.Hi Kyle! I saw! Makes me miss portland Volvo shens.
Indeed! Non-turbo has the best powerband of all! Well, it's somewhat boring I guess with that flat flat torque curve. But really, it's a little misleading as Harald's setup isn't dialed in, and neither was Poik's, I'm sure. Harald's wants to keep going to 7500rpm or more, then his powerband won't be so skinny. Hopefully some more tuning and boost control helps get the party started a little sooner as well, but I'm sure it feels really fun right now as the power just keeps climbing as the rpm climb.That comparative graph is very interesting.

With what goal?Highly tempted to pick one of these up prior:

That sounds nice. I assume you are comparing when you had the GTX to when you had the journal bearing turbo(the current one?) on the 8V, and not with how it is responding now on the 16V without boost control and it's own, higher rpm setup?Improved response. For all the problems I had with the GTX, time to boost above the threshold was instant compared to a journal bearing turbo.
