ITBs and manifold are SICK

Nice work. I have the B204GT and the Emerald, I just don't have them combined.
Emerald is on my B21ET, I love the setup.

Perhaps I should build an Emerald on the GT too, that would solve a lot of problems.
Did you install it yourself, and tuning?

Very nice set-up. Me likey.

It looks like your Festo vacuum canister is only drawing from one cylinder in the picture you showed. Is that true or do you have another shot that shows how it picks up from all four. That was a bit of a pain for my set-up, mostly because those fittings are not common in the states.

Set-up works fine on n/a engine but turned out not to be ideal for a turbo engine (too much fluctuation). So canister will be connected to all four cilinders.

OK, that makes sense and is what I ended up doing too.

When you installed the Bosch 044 pump, did you remove the in-tank pump? Is your fuel tank modified? Thanks.

There is a new in-tank pump in my 960. Also fuel lines were replaced.

Unless you want to run a 5 cylinder engine on Coil packs then he's bloody useless.

Great quality build mate. i like the use of orings on the manifold instead of gaskets.

We kept telling you you should have put a 6 in there, your sump wouldn't be leaking either. I'll even give you a brand new, genuine Volvo 760 badge. Still in its packaging.

Wow that would even match the V5 as the DVLA swear its a 760 Turbo.

Wow! I don't know what more to say. Dream..

It gets along nicely

Not finished due to private matters but a lot has been done sofar. Some pictures.


New custom header, ceramic coated. No stainless this time. Each runner its own EGT sensor.






New custom downpipe.


New inlet manifold from KLRacing.se. The old - very nice - manifold with individual throttle bodies had to go. Better suited for n/a engine.


The Garrett GT3071R got damaged by broken spark plug porcelain. Replaced by twin scroll BorgWarner EFR7064.


From swedish MaxxEcu.com the new 'Race', a.o. ready for Egas, two knock sensors and cruise control. In Sweden they didn't like mapping the old Emerald ecu that much...


Tablet on dash communicates with ecu via bluetooth.


E-gas throttle body (BMW X5), later on replaced by Chrysler unit.


Egas pedal (Hella) mounted on custom bracket.


New suspension (Koni / Eibach) front and rear from Kaplhenke.


With adjustable strut mounts, adjustable swaybar endlinks, Luxe steer and Quick Steer Roll Correction.



Cleaning the S/V70R 4-pot Brembo calipers front and rear.


Rear stock drum/disc machined to adept custom AP Racing disc. That way no work was needed on the stock hand brake.


AP Racing rear disc 12.6 inch (stock 10.2 inch).


Front discs from S/V70R 13 inch (stock 11 inch) with S/V70R 4-pot Brembo caliper.


New bushings for multilink from UK retroturbo.com a.o. and adjustable stay.


Rims from 16 to 18 inch...


...together with GoodYear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 225-40-18. Small size (width) as it were 'safety valve' for drive train .

Installed



It gets along nicely. More pictures to follow.
