Y'all wanna make me some 1gzfe v12 itbs? LOL

[@mancavecustoms13]

You know what'd be real nice? Share the print file with us Volvo guys. My V70 and C70 could use this fun bit :P

[@ppanek]

Forget about it.... its not cheap. I prefer DBILLAS itb but.... scan it and pri t it.... nice :)

[@Jer0m3]

A kit would be nice too 🎉

[@ppanek]

@@Jer0m3 itb to street car is not a very not good idea. Forget about fuel economy, forget about nice iddle, its way more.efficient to intstall turbo or... jist to buy a t5 :)

[@drift0141]

​@@ppanek who need that when you got awesome sound?!

[@wimvanderschelden1369]

Some people do track builds. It would be nice if they offered the files or on demand production of this thing for those interested.

[@theobolmer2056]

PLEASE sell this kit. You are in the perfect position to make this widely available. There are very few other KZbin car builds that are backed by a parts company. Plus all the expensive R&D of designing the kit is already done, all you have to do is make it available to the public. Total win-win. PLEASSSSEEEE

[@theobolmer2056]

You don't even have to stock them, they can be printed to order. That way there's no initial investment for FCP if it flops.

[@thelowcartheory]

Alex is a killer. Been following him for a long time. Glad he is getting the publicity he deserves as an engineer.

[@fcpeuro]

True MVP on this one - we are so glad to have him here full time now! Lots more to come 😬

lol he knows how to do his job so he "deserves publicity"

[@thelowcartheory]

​@@nutsackmania that dude can accomplish what would take an engineering team and 4x the timeline a few decades ago; To find that skillset wrapped into one human that's as passionate as him is a rarity.

[@fry.master]

@@nutsackmania right? I feel like I need to show up and show fcp another “real” employee

[@NorwayVFX]

If you ever feel like dropping some decent money into this, ACM in Sweden has a stroker crank which brings the engine to 2.7 liters with the 83mm bore of the 2.5 engine. And I'm sure Scimec Motor in Norway have some good cams for it.

[@NAMBUGMAN]

I support this

[@timvanderstarre9021]

And E85!

[@fcpeuro]

Looks like we have some emails to write.... 🤔

[@Nikko780]

a CNC ported P2 R head (there are a couple places with CNC programs), big valves and hot cams would really wake it up.

[@lachlanbrown409]

So cool. You Scandos do some cool things with cars. In Australia we just have the humble Ford Barra Turbo. Run on 98 Octane it's makes 420 NM at 3250 rpm - without a turbo. With a turbo...

I have zero regret subscribing to this channel since your last 850 video.

Leaving the mic on Alex when he left was awsome!!😄

[@danjones2913]

ITBs are on my wish list for the 240 redblock ❤ coolest looking bit of kit on an engine hands down, love the mechanical look of it all.

[@EthanRoyMedia]

The nosies!!!😍 I could listen to those sounds day and night….wait it feels like I…have?

[@Phenixzero]

As previous 850 owner, this is really wild ! ❤

[@FEMEDIA]

This is insane, i need those

[@paulsimonsson]

I love this build series! The N/A 5 cylinder sounds amazing, such a cool project

[@Evowar05]

I just discovered your channel. Those game transitions are THE BEST.

[@NXT_LVL]

Basically doing the same thing with the intake air box of my truck... minus the 3d scanner tool and the ITBs. Printing in ASA. Scuffed it and sprayed with high heat engine enamel paint because I want overkill on temperature management lol 3D printing has made custom parts a full win for the DIYers who arent 100% on metal fabrication

[@ddew677]

I Would love it if you guys could make the 3d model public or sell the manifold parts. Would be a godsend since i have a set of these ITB's sitting on my desk!

[@mtsixspeed]

Love the series. I'm not a Volvo guy, but I'm definitely an N/A guy. I'm surprised that it doesn't make even more power than this. A 5cyl engine with ITB and full exhaust that makes the same power as a stock K24A2. It sounds sooo good. I want it to be more!

[@DullBoyJack]

All about the cams. It needs way more cam and RPM to get more power out of it.

[@XBredrenX]

Excellent work with this video series! We Volvo enthusiasts are a unique bunch. For the NA 5-cylinder, that 175 whp number is very impressive! Ignoring any other variables and estimating drivetrain loss for the M56 gearbox to be 20%, that would put you at 219 bhp. One of the results of shaving the cylinder head on the original BTCC 850 engine was an increased compression ratio. If you guys ever tear into the bottom end, a set of 13.5:1 JE pistons would probably bump up your dyno numbers. It might require 95 octane fuel or an octane booster additive though.

[@tidysampler585]

God damn, those those ITB’s sound fantastic 👍 Great work to see in stages of design 🔥

[@coultl6556]

Love this series. True car geek stuff.

[@fcpeuro]

Glad you're enjoying it!!

[@ctuning]

Wow nice work!

[@volvocomposites]

looking good Jacob, cant wait to see you fit our BTCC air dam 😉

[@JD-rq7il]

I've recently subbed. Cool content. Sticking N/A is very hard to do. It's a little loud for my taste, but you guys are killing this build!!!

[@fcpeuro]

Thanks for subscribing! N/A is definitely not the easy way, but it makes for something much more unique! The car is loud....thankfully, it's not a daily driver!

[@JETFOURLITRE]

Out-fucking-standing! Awesome work by all!

[@nicoxis]

I'd love to hear a quieter exhaust to make that intake sound shine

[@benjaminmarouski3487]

My godddd this sounds and looks so good

[@TheCluelessEnthusiast]

This thing sounds awesome. 175 whp is actually not bad for an old na 5 cylinder. I would love to see a drag race between this and a stock 850r

[@Jerra3007]

So i'm wondering how does this translate then to the GLT engine with 20 valves, because that is already 170hp from the factory, how come this one is only 5hp more with all these upgrades?

[@cumbob]

Look up the IE VW 2.5 na build one of those guys did. 300hp na full engine build over 9k rpm

[@TheCluelessEnthusiast]

@@Jerra3007 GLT is 170hp at the engine. This car made 175 hp to the wheels. 175whp would be above 200 at the engine

[@TheCluelessEnthusiast]

@@cumbob yes i saw that. I love the engine dyno video where it revved to 9400rpm. It sounded insane

[@ScottCo98]

Hope to see it again at Carlisle next year hopefully in the exhaust comp and autocross

[@fcpeuro]

We'd love to bring it to Carlisle again!

[@thiswillprobhrt]

As a previous owner of multiple 5 pot whiteblocks and an e60 M5, I rate this video 11/10, would recommend. Also at 200 crank HP, it’s not far off the specific output of the S85…. Well, without the M button pressed anyway.

[@Bumbazaurs]

Jacob, why You didn't choose the 2,5 liter 20 valve powerplant? That engine is blast from the stock and with those improvements it could have been a total beast.

[@throckmortonthebrave6634]

I think they are trying to mimic the volvo btcc car

[@Stale_Mahoney]

@@throckmortonthebrave6634 well for that they would need to use a 2L

[@throckmortonthebrave6634]

@@Stale_Mahoney that is true

[@Bumbazaurs]

@@throckmortonthebrave6634 If I am not wrong, originally, TWR used 2,3 liter turbo engine with dismounted turbo and reduced engine volume. For my project I use B5204S. My guess would be, that Jacob eventually will go for that 20 valve head, because 175hp is just not enough, but there are still many ways to increase the power. Good luck Jacob!

[@fcpeuro]

In season 1, we replaced the 850's original 20v 2.4 N engine with the updated RN 2.4 liter 20v from a P2.

[@farmannn855]

I going to make my t5r NA now😅

[@kdoran709]

So sick this project is!!

[@martinlund9524]

damn cool setup!

[@martinlund9524]

when doing fuel line work and a 850 / X70 car. Use 740/940 fuel filter instead! It is the same but there is no pushlock on them. and the inside diameter is bigger than 850. There is a M12 1.5 and M14 1.5 connection. It is more easy to do this was and maybe even a bit cheaper and easy to replace the fuel filter now and then.

[@tylerdoyon7525]

Love to see Pat going "PUSH ITTT" with the hands like seriously SHE WANTS IT!

[@srw2010]

Will Jacob be coming to Swedish Car day at the Larz Anderson in August? I've seen this car in person twice already, but I want MORE! Such a great series, keep up the amazing work y'all!

[@fcpeuro]

We think we can arrange for that to happen... Thanks for the support!

[@supercarmio]

My favorite build atm, you guys are killing it! 🔥

[@seanjiang3174]

I work in the dentistry, this spray and scan technology is what we did back in 2003, you guys should probably check out some medical grade scanners, no need to spray paint to get a 3d printing model. Super accurate and efficient, can probably scan the entire engine bay within 30 seconds.

[@seanjiang3174]

And the size of the scanner is just a little bigger than an electrical tooth brush. Btw, wireless too.

[@Jer0m3]

And the price?

[@seanjiang3174]

@@Jer0m3 somewhere between $25k to $50k

[@jonnyxs892]

So Sick.

[@skunkworks__]

Already letting the new guy work his magic!

[@fcpeuro]

we figured we might as well 😂

[@deanirwin3645]

I just assumed that when scanning, one had to have a stable platform like a tripod. Didn't know there were handheld scanners.

[@fcpeuro]

Yep , really a flexible system when using a handheld like that!

[@derpapito1391]

Damn, you really are serious about this project, aren't you? 🤘👍

[@fcpeuro]

We are in too deep not to!

[@lesedigaogane316]

5 cylinder engines sound good

[@andymcdo]

Now it's time for a big set of chonky cams But also, if you guys could sell this as a kit, that would be great

[@fcpeuro]

If people would buy it we would consider listing it! Lot that would have to go into it - but doable! Also , yes, cam time! Season 3 ... engine build!?

[@andymcdo]

@@fcpeuro maybe sell the digital models for people to figure out how to make on their own?

[@volvo850r3]

You can modify the fan housing to make it fit closer to Bumper and give you more room.

[@hughgotit611]

Any plans for big cams? @SimplyVolvo had large gains with his cams, plus a wonderful idle. I think he did KM 280 duration

[@fcpeuro]

The car is in major need of more cam - season 3 plans?? Engine build time.

[@thatdudeinorange5269]

'Proper tribute' to BTCC.. Volvo's BTCC technichians would cry if they had seen the 'artpiece' of an exhaust on this 850 😂 Guessing the inlet manifold will have at least three 180° bends on it? 😮 😅

[@angus3963]

It's sounds absolutely amazing! Can't wait to see more of this project! #5cylindersordeath (previous 12 year owner of a 2004 V70 T5M B5423T daily, and long time FCP customer).
