I think with FPR you mean the fuel pressure?quote:

Hey Johann,
Nice site, glad you finally got more update on the car.
I wish I could have some time to do something up for my C70, too. Almost done now....just need to get the FPR thingy resolved, and if that works out and no glitches......But in the meantime, I'll just enjoy the IC upgrade and the car as a whole.Do some more write up about the car soon..we are running outta interesting Volvo enthusiasts' web site nowadays.![]()
Yup yupquote:

No need, I already got something aftermarket and a lot better of course.quote:

Exactly, there's no more return line setup from 70 series up and newer. However, it looks like the fuel rail from the 70 series and the 97 850 is still the same...unless I seriously ordered the wrong one, long story. But yes, I'd have to put a fuel return line in the system to make my Aeromotive FPR work. And hopefully that will solve the problem with car running lean at high RPMs. We'll also check if the fuel pressure is indeed dropping.quote:

But with the standard turbo's you do not have to worry about that to much.quote:

It's funny how you ask most of the volvo ECU tuners, they'd simply tell you that everything is controlled by your ECU and if you are running lean, it's always software issue..never caused by small injectors and other misc hardware. Only if it was that easy...
True...quote:

I was wondering where you got the upgraded turbo from.

Sorry if it sounded like a stupid question but I was surfing the net yesterday and came upon MachV and they were selling Mitsu turbos (16G and 19G).quote:

Part no. 8601693
Those are aftermarket types and do not come with the correct Volvo turbine flange.quote:

The S60 is very sensitive on it's MAF and reacts to the air which goes out.quote:

Johann,
Maybe you miss my post in the S60 on Ebay thread, anyway, I want to know what kind of problem you experiencing with your Blitz? Slight bog down between shifts? Maybe because of the rich A/F ratio right at the shifts, hope I am "right on the money" regarding to your blow off valve problem.
Anyway, I came across some of the threads that some people, like me, want to have that nice wooosh sound when you shift, the loudest audiable valve on the market today would be the TurboXS Type-H RFL valve. With that, I am sure you can hear the sound in our pretty quiet Volvos.![]()
