who is old enough to remember Robbie Francevic in the Volvo 240

this is my old s40 T4. it had slotted rotors(not on in this shot) but nothing else done('cept rims of course)
powerchip i'm pretty sure have a chip to suit this model that will take it up to 360nm and add 20-25kw but it's over $1200 http://www.powerchipgroup.com/interact/ ... id=Vol0027

A BOV woin't affect fuel economy on a AFM/MAF vehicle. It only runs rich momentarily when it vents off.
