Well I forgot about Volvos in my search for a RWD beater. Looking for a 240 wagon now.
What is your average MPG's with this beast?
Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser 2 tons of fun
1983 Malibu Wagon never ending frame-off
1986 Chevrolet C10 LS swapped and mostly dropped
95 Caprice ex-MSP cop car
99 Suburban bigassgas SLT
1993 Cadillac CST-V8 rear mount turbo, 12psi 10.56@123mph and burning up the ozone
1995 Volvo 850 T5-R, 18psi with flashed ecu and bigger injectors, 315whp
1973 Chevy Nova with a Volvo B230FT and 4L60E, seriously different.
1994 Volvo 945, soon to be faster on 15psi

Yeah now that i have another car, the chevelle can stay off the road and i can actually do stuff piece by piece instead of a mad rush to get everything done in one weekend.
Yeah.. having time to do things right is nice, on the one side, having one car *does* make it so that you fix things as SOON as they need it instead of waiting until it completely breaks.

Thanks to Alex and Matt for helping me today. Matty has the photos and some video of the wagon on the rollers.
I broke the 200hp mark on the last pass, adding the new airfilter and hose to the turbo must have smoothed out the flow just enough to help, went from 194hp to 205.
Not bad for an almost 22 year old 2.3 litre, 8 valve engine with stock cam. (factory @8psi 160bhp @ crank)
Next time i will have the AFM moved to the intake side where it can feel cool air and far less turbulent flow, i think that's what's hurting me right now.
I'm very happy with these numbers, for today.
wastegate setting of 12psi max, 163.92hp and 201lb/tq, open turbo inlet

Ok, that's what I thought at first then I thought 12 may have been low boost setting.
Good work Dag!
