Volvo 242 Dyno session

[@TurboWorld]

Yes We appreciate the English Version very much! I watched this entire thing and shared it in my playlist of "Stuff I Watch and Like". Ah yes the a/f gauge- - even with new o2 sensor, I have to calibrate it. And then recalibrate once a month. Instructions say- Unplug sensor, cycle key on, wait for err message on gauge. Turn key off. Then unscrew sensor, plug it in, cycle key on- o2 sensor is open free air-no pipe, wait wait wait , calibrate, and then 22.4 a/f. Turn key off. Unplug sensor, screw back in. Plug back in, turn key back on, good to go. If I miss the important key cycles I ruin the calibration memory. If I unplug the sensor with key on, I ruin the calibration and must start over by recalibration. Placement in exhaust stream is super important for life of sensor. You probably already know all of this. But it's worth repeating for others, I feel like. I would rather use The AEM in the future. It requires no calibration. I get what you mean. Curious to see what the exhaust manifold looks like, before that snail. I am honestly looking forward to this engine beating our power record on the channel! Motivates me to turn mine up to almost 2 bar! Great Work Busy Man!

English content is great. Precision. Details. Thank you. 👌🏻

[@darrenmcneill2226]

Love all this 8 valve content. Many thanks for the insight into tuning these.

[@jochenweyerbrock6236]

Hi, I watch all your videos. This often helps me with my B200FT. It's very interesting and educational. Thank you for letting us be a part of it and we would love to see more of it. Thank you and have fun and success. greetings from Germany

[@justinlandis58]

Love the English content! Great build series. Thank you.

[@joem335]

Thanks for the English version and thanks a lot for sharing these good info, waiting for your Volvo session .

[@viktornordgren5827]

Best channel on youtube! Im learning more from you than i do in school :)

[@coalblack]

Bro your killing it, loving all your content. . Keep it coming my dude!!

[@bayvanman]

As a new to Volvo owner (B20b Amazon) I'm finding your videos educational. 👍🏻

[@rjnation5042]

That's a very cool Volvo, really like the original colour, I'm on the other side of the world but have a heavily modified 242 myself, 4.4ltr supercharged Lexus engine swap in mine, it's very powerful but also nice & quite, true sleeper spec, Rj in Oz

[@Raphaeldomingosanchez]

You should make a video of your 242, I would love to see it

[@theworstgarage1737]

Thank you so much for the English videos you are the man!!!! Much love from the states!! Can’t wait for more!

[@blackedelweiss601]

cool video. it's nice to actually see the process in real-time. I'd be interested in seeing some b21ft tuning!

[@caleeks4217]

Great video! Just love nice clean Volvo´s with Volvo engines...

[@sresto7943]

Thanks for the English content, great to see a dyno session

[@pkpete]

Really appreciate you sharing your knowledge in English.

[@postlimon]

i just bought an 80 242 that looks just like this one. i have a b230 with a 55mm turbo, and have no idea how to tune it. these videos are really helpful thank you!

[@richardcrouse9074]

Thank you for the English version! Greatly appreciated!

[@devinp203]

i love the english content, thank you man!!!

[@jfv65]

135hp NA is like a optimised stock B230FB (VX3 cam, or maybe A-cam or K-cam) I have seen a B230 (1mm shaved 531head) with 147hp on RON98. Flat top pistons and H-cam, underdrive crank pulley. That was a fresh engine for a VOC rally car.

[@MV-ri7zu]

Its dumb af to try to achieve good numbers with the 8v head when the 16v head exists that is almost bolt on...

[@Fulcrum205]

@@MV-ri7zu not really. Going 16v means tearing into the bottom end to replace pistons and replacing both manifolds. The 8V will make more power than the transmission can hold with bolt ons. Also, if you race replacing a cylinder head is going to bump you way up in class.

[@volvo74516vTurbo]

Great video as always Tommy👍🏼

[@tanwalltom4231]

I really enjoy the English videos please keep it up, we need more…

[@OlavAlexanderMjelde]

Good work, makes me want to buy an old RWD Turbo Volvo again :-)

[@josephkelly4893]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge

[@flyfaen1]

The drop in boost that happened after the ignition advance was increased, is most likely due to exhaust temperature going down, thus less energy for the turbine at the same WG setting.

[@dagz_customs]

Keep going with the 8 valve stuff. I got my engine running with Haltech now, no e85 in my area though.

[@marcinbujok7388]

Love the content on your channel! Pretty awesome knowledge you present! Keep the english videos coming.

[@abnerromeo]

great video and thank you for sharing your great knoledge, I am working on a similar project with a 16 valve head and Microsquirt, and this is giving me the gereat reference since I also look for a daily drive.

[@mickeyaitch8898]

Greatly appreciate the English language versions of your videos. I'd be happy with accurate English subtitles on the Swedish language versions rather than a total re-dub. If you were building a B230 engine with the 8valve head what sort of cam duration would you want to use to make power around 6500 - 6800rpm? Is there a really big difference in flow between a moderately ported 530 head with slightly oversized valves and the stock 531 head?

[@julius4880]

Very interesting video! could watch you for hours while you’re tune Volvos

[@Turbo8285]

I really appreciate the English language because that’s all I know 😂 but have watched many videos of yours and others here in the USA not a lot of support other than forms online but I love watching the videos, And question if you or anyone see this about b234f 16v, is the bottom end good for boost or should I find a squirter block?

[@Involvod]

Nice. Thanks for the English video!

[@arronmeanock4077]

Love the English content keep it coming please 👍

[@per-goranborjesson2045]

check that the exhaust system is at least 76 mm inside the exhaust pipe and all the way this size at least use one size smaller the exhaust housing so set the revs much higher use a stroked crankshaft longer stroke shorter connecting rods high compression for holding 12:1 this gives great axle ratio and horse power direct water injection e one must be data controlled then it is possible to have higher ignition less than otherwise injector fuel

[@oldschoolvolvo]

Great video, thanks for sharing in English. Greetings from USA.

[@Seumu990]

Good content! Educational and entertaining ;) Thank you!

[@robinblikst613]

cant wait for the next video

[@erikbackstrom1861]

Bra videos som vanigt 👍😁 vad är det du räknar ut med miniräknaren? Är det effekt som sugmotor? Och hur räknar du 🤔

[@dailytwitchcontentyt]

Han räknar ut motorns hästkrafter utan turbo N/A = Naturally Aspirated, hästkrafter delat på 2.6

[@patrikjokihaara4180]

@@dailytwitchcontentyt delat 2.6 är på 1,6bar.. 2.8 är på 1.8 bar osv

[@gert-jandejong1832]

Awesome vid, thanks for the English version!👍👍

[@boosted242]

Nice! Great video! :)

[@andrewmcgill4957]

Great work! Think you could Turbo a B21A with carbs? The boost just adds so much HP!

[@Turbo8285]

And keep making videos even with English overlay explaining tips and tricks of making hp upgrades from red blocks

[@TEAMVISKAT81]

redblock power :)

[@chris425amp7]

[@bumbudi111]

Hi, have you noticed that maxxecu tends to create a lean spot at the end of the spoolphase/ begging of the boost area?

[@73turbopinto]

Thank you for English. I'm interested in porting a 530 head I'm installing one on my Ford 2.3 Lima block.

[@illgtr]

awesome video, thanks for english content

[@weylinaslanides4586]

Where did the intake and manifold come from could I please have the link?

[@jbg6961]

Skulle vara skoj att lämna motorn till dig och få lite ordning på maskineriet. Bra video, kul att se lite mappning 👍

[@L1NKU5]

Hur räknar du på NA från en överladdad motor? Samt varför gör man det? :) Väldigt intressant oavsett!

[@bumbudi111]

Jäkligt bra kanal btw👍

[@Low760]

Great video. Thank you

[@mully006]

What transmission is on this engine?

[@Jerra3007]

Great English!

[@NewPlayerFTW]

What is the piping size and the throttle body and of which brand it is??

[@r.seebode9862]

Tack! For english version.

[@jukk355]

What type of knock sensor setup do you use?

[@katluke]

English version is always appreciated 👍

[@dalebrooks9630]

Yay, more English videos!

[@martinultimatevw3779]

Cool, thanks for the English version. That volvo looks alot like Bamse's volvo 😅 for na calculations u used 2.6 earlier in the video and later 2.85, why is that?

[@MrMollerstedt]

Diffrent boost to calculate from

[@jacquespoirier9071]

what is the longevity of such an engine that develops 3 times the original power ?

[@MV-ri7zu]

Depends on the internals.

[@360drift]

Väldigt intressant att se hur du jobbar med motorerna i dynon. Att du pratar engelska gör ingen större skillnad gör mig utöver att vi går miste om din trevliga dialekt. 😘

[@smashbox20]

I wish you could fine tune my car! So much done to it but no one in Florida wants to touch a volvo when it comes to tuning :(

[@runedigerud9943]

Senk kompresjon !!! 7,2:1 - 7,99:1

[@JETFOURLITRE]

So awesome man 👌🇦🇺🇸🇪
