AWESOME! ![god](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/dieu.gif)
Cracks me up that in the UK people spend tons of cash and all these ideas and get crap, and in scandinavia they knock up something much better for no money and no time.
Bit of thought and not copying everyone else goes a long way

A lot easier to do being lhd, unless you got a bias pedal box on rhd. I used to love my turbo technics twin turbo xr4i (2.9 conversion), but i think the 5.0 chevy v8 i have is much better suited to producing the power in a sierra.
What power is it producing?

thats a 2.9 v6 engine found in xr4x4s and glsi's from about 88 in the UK, not sure about other european countrys. could also be from a granada
xr4is had a 2.8 v6 2drs and later the 4drs used a 2.0 8v twincam
oh early xr4x4s used the 2.8 and some late ones came with the 2.0 again

Nice sleeper ![](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/shocked.gif)
![god](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/dieu.gif)
I was under the impression that the 2.9 had weak pistons that limited the amount of boost you can ran, do you get away with 1.2 bar because of ethanol running cooler and the fact that it is running such a big turbo?
What revs does it start making boost at ?
cheers
