Wow, looks pretty darn good for being 31 years old. That sucks that they go straight to PnP or the crusher. And they didn't make that many to begin with.

Are the fuel regulated return and blow-off valve (at least I think that's what that is) standard equipment on that Volvo?

the car came from the factory with a Pierburg CBV and a return pressure regulator, yes. and though i may have replaced those factory parts with some shinier aftermarket ones, the function and operation are essentially identical.

last year with the "factory" setup:

and yes, that's a v8 mustang on drag slicks next door.

i don't care much for 1/8 mile but one guy on the fontana crew is tearing it up with his stripped wagon. my pirate barge still has the full interior and the holset doesn't spool as readily. as soon as the wb02 and boost controller are in and some more tuning done it will be time for more fun at the track, grudge match with a firebird and looking for 100+ in the trap /fingertwirl
