    maaaaad volvo..

    http://www.europeancarweb.com/features/0402ec_volvo/

    600bhp. a locked differential(!!!!). brought for $120. looks good (imo), and apparently will wheelspin at 80.

    The 240's current compressor comes off a 7-liter Volvo truck engine, but he has plans to use an even larger turbo from a 9-liter Volvo truck

    Alfredsson says plainly that he wants to have the fastest street legal 240 in Sweden. "The turbo from the 9-liter engine should help out," he said, thinking out loud. "With some mods that will allow more boost, that will take it up to around 1000 hp. Then I will also add nitrous. Should be enough."
    1000 hp Volvo That really is a mad volvo.
    wonder if he could do me a conversion for my 440

    That Volvo ain't mad, it's bloody insane. Would not mid a ride in it though. Would be sweet pulling up to a skyline at the lights and leaving it behind in a 240 Volvo

    Living and dying laughing and crying
    Once you have seen it you will never be the same
    Life in the fast lane is just how it seems
    Hard and it is heavy dirty and mean
