Will do


Dave nice jump on the rexpeed ducts from VegasPaul. I love those, and highly considered ordering them when I ordered my new lower lip. BUt I decided to look as clean and stock as possible. But awesome ducts *This may help you during install....I noticed the rivets that come with the ducts are a silver finished head. I have here hundreds of the same style rivets with a black plastic coating that will not stand out so much after install. I can get these to you for nothing, but if you stop by a Volvo Retailer part#979878 $0.30 each. I persoanlly do not like the silver finished exposed, seeing its a dark product. Looks unfinished. But its your car and your look. Just lettin you know.

turcos, I used bold just for you

 

diaf. kthx

 

I could have sworn the last number was the hotside. Because the IX turbo ends with 10.5T and the VIII turbo ends with 9.8T. So I think that is the size of the hotside.

 

i've never heard it expressed like that before-

like mine is a td06H-20g 8cm^2 hotside.

then again, you evo people are odd, so maybe that's how they roll....

 

so back to my original question, does that really mean the evo X turbo has a 12cm^2 hotside?

Edit: I meant 12cm, mikie confused me. I confuse easily.

 

actually, here are some links:

it looks like the 12t might have originally been a volvo turbo. combined with the fact it looks pretty tiny according to some of the reviews (bagel-sized), i think that's the compressor wheel.

 

it doesn't say, but i doubt it.

14cm hotside would be like over 1.06 from garrett. that would be ginormous and laggy.

 

That second link is pretty awesome but really needs to be updated.

 

yeah i meant 12cm^2. You got me all confused with the wrx comment. I lose.

Looks like the EVO X got a new array of forums. Now i have to scroll more. So gay. my pointer finger does not like the EVO X because it makes it scroll more.

 

Tim: i agree with you! The silver looks too unfinished....I may hit you up for those black ones if you don't mind.

Thanks a lot!

 

Does this forum have an ignore list too?

 

Can't imagine what Mitsu would use a volvo turbo for.... doesn't really make much sense....

 

Maybe mitsu designed the turbo for volvo and now they are using it. I doubt after all these years mitsu would outsource turbo design.

 

Turco, who do you want to ignore?

 

avengerDickhed, have you ever seen him?
