    I have 2 buddies who are at the forefront of performance and custom fabrication for these cars. I suggest you get turbobricks.com and read away. Here are a couple of my friends times.

    I wanna know what kind of power they make if they like mods etc... How much boos can they take before you need internals.

    yep. Got one with a few things done. I like busting up 350zs and things with it. they do well

    Depends on which type of volvo you're modding. The rwd and fwd volvos are very different animals to mod.

    I have a 94 940 turbo

    I"m good friends of both of those guys in the vids. The 11 second 740t is making 430whp, and the 12 second 244 is making 350+whp (with spray). Kenny did my megasquirt for my 940.
    My car is factory....



    Every single performance part and or modification it has was made in a factory somewhere.

    I believe he is talking about the RWD models, but it shouldn't matter.
