FS: 1990 20vt CQ - built AAN running Motronic + Volvo k24

So I know I have played around with a lot of 'feelers' but the time has officially come to put this on the market. I would love to keep the car and continue to refine it over time, but it is one of the things is standing in my way of paying off those nagging student loans and launching my own ...

Re: Lifter tick won't go away. Built AAN

Did you resolve this? I am getting a bit more tick on my engine than I would like now that I have it running again and I have full oil pressure.

Volvo K24 turbo: What size is the outlet?

I am scrambling to get my car back together from Carlisle and still need to order a few silicone couplers to make the Volvo k24 work.

Can anyone measure the outlet side of the compressor housing for me? My car and the turbo is an hour and 20 mins from me at my cousin's house so it's not as easy for ...

Re: WTB S2 airbox

Is the 3B smaller than an ABY?

Also, I would like to find just the top half of an ABY and use a V6 bottom half to save on international shipping costs (smaller box).

I'm looking for an S2 airbox, or even just the top half for my latest setup.

then this is the turbo for you.

That curve seems so wide... does this completely blow a GT28 out of the water?

When you say stock spool do you mean k24 fast?

I do have rods, but what I really want is the fastest spooling 350+whp setup possible. :drive:

Re: Custom AAN Motronic mapping

I'm late to the game here... but I traded my Holset and VEMS for a Volvo K24 and EFI-X chipped ECU back in November and I can't wait to get the car running again.

I'm already thinking about phase 2 when the volvo turbo takes a dump... billet K26 or EFR7163...

Dumb 5lug swap question

Would it be possible to use T44 front strut housings on a B3/B4?

I see this as a relatively inexpensive solution to 5lug front hubs, and if the donor car had UFO brakes, I could run anything that fits a B5 S4 (thinking TTRS here)... correct me if I am wrong.

Spring and damper issues would not be ...

Re: 4000 Quattro Recaro's?

When I put MK2 recaros in my 84 4k I had to flip them (pass on driver's side and vice versa) due to the design of the center rail up front.

I believe I also had to bend the outer slider slightly.

Hey guys, I am planning on moving from Minneapolis, MN to downtown Pittsburgh, PA and I've been having the uneasy feeling that I should sell my Coupe project.

Over the weekend I received an offer on the car as-is. The car is currently immobile due to a broken shift linkage. It also needs to be ...
