    Puking steering fluid

    So in my quest for bigger skids I've developed a problem with the 940. every time I take it drifting it vents most of the pas during a run, the rack is brand new OEM and the pump is good. I think its because sliding around the caster turns the wheels rather than input from the steering and its...

    blow by issues

    as I've been pushing the car harder I've started noticing after runs its often pushing the dipstick out or blowing past the oil filler cap seal. usually only happens after I've been limiter bouncing but I'm struggling to find the route cause. I've checked all the crank breathers and cleaned them...

    flywheel and clutch choices?

    ive had a poke around and found people saying that its best to convert to a dogdish flywheel and diesel clutch if above 250hp, but no real info on what needs modifying to make it all work together. ive a '97 b230fk with the m90 and at the moment it slips clean to the redline in third or above as...

    940 aero improvements

    Now that my 940 estate's top speed is running north of 150mph I'm starting to get concerned about it's stability and how floaty it feels, I've looked around but can't find anything on front skirts or underbody things to help cure it. Anyone know of anything that could help or where I could get...

    gt35 fitment

    I've been shopping around for bigger turbos as you do. Came across a gt35 that's the right money and already clocked correctly. The ad says it's a t3 flange and I remember seeing on here a thread ages ago mentioning that you'd need to bore/reem out the 90+ b230 manifold to use t3 flange/turbo...

    engine clarification

    I've looked around a few sites and a couple dozen threads here and I can't find astraight answer so I'll ask myself. I have a '97 940 with a b230fk. However I've just discovered it has the 530 head on it which I had thought was only on the earlier engines (late ones having 531). And I'm seeing A...

    quick racks for 940s ?

    This has been bugging me for a while. I've been thinking of taking the Volvo skidding/drifting however the stock steering rack take five years to get from one end to the other. I was wondering if anyone knew of shorter racks that fit 940s? Like a 2-3 turn lock to lock kind of deal? Any help...

    850t5r turbo onto b230fk

    Have been pondering this for some time. But it looks like its not quite a bolt on fit, I know it would need clocking but I can't tell if the exhaust flange would work with the stock 940 three bolt downpipe flange and if I need to modify my exhaust manifold. Can anyone share some light on what...

    boost drop help!

    Been having issues with making boost on my b230fk, i cant get it to make more than 10psi No matter how far i wind up the mbc. If it set it to 10 it spools to 10 smoothly and stably. It will boost upto just under a bar if i wind it right up but it doesnt hold there, quickly backs down to 10 and...

    t25 worth the swap?

    I was reminded today I have a garret t25 laying around and it got me to wondering if its any better than the stock 13c on my 940. Ive wound the 13c up to 12psi and still want more, anyone know if the t25 would make more power?

    b230fk turbo choices?

    This has probably been gone over a dozen times here but im having great difficulty finding the right info let alone decent turbos. I have a 1997 940lpt, currently running nothing but 12psi and a decat. I know I need to deal with injectors and airflow in/out but I'm struggling over which turbo...
