    Broken porcelain on sparkplug #4, over the center electrode causing it to completely shroud the tip of the electrode, changed the plug and game on!

      Woooo Hooo!

      If you do want those aero injectors, you're welcome to them.
      I'm sure you'll be doing some welding for me shortly.
      (you can take the injector plugs, too. I don't think we'll be using the harness)

          Finally got around to extending the AMM wires to the cold side, i also blocked off the two china bay BOV's and installed a factory Bosch bypass valve on the hot side, it came off of g96nt's SAAB wagon. Car runs 100% better, no more off idle stumbling or lean outs before the boost comes in, it also idles now where before it would lope and then stall.

          I update my facebook fan page more often with photo's, The page is "Dagaz Performance and Metalcraft" in case anyone is interested in checking it out, it's not Volvo specific, i post all sorts of things that i do.

            Those eBay bov's suck , the one on the forester was awful except for making all sorts of rowdy flames.

              BTW, if the valve leaks, you can flip it.

                  I think you are right, i was most likely intoxicated when i wrote that, i probably meant to say that they dont like to open which was causing the turbo to surge when i let off.

                  Also, for someone with a very open and strong dislike of these cars, why bother looking at my page?

                      Transmission accumulator mod, helps firm up the shifts quite nicely









                      No more knee wrecker mod, changed the trailer hitch from what i made to a uhaul peice i picked up for $60 shipped, couldn't go wrong, came with hitch and ball as well.
