Volvo 245 TD *more power project*

[Volvo_242_Diesel(Finland)]

Hello!

This is my new project. The engine is D24T without intercooler. 1,1bar boost and more fuel. Performance is now 0-100km/h about 11s and 1/4-mile best 17,2s/128km/h(no lock). I own this car over 2 years...

Nice looking wagon! What year is it? It looks like an '86 or newer, but I think you may have gotten the newer style front end in Europe sooner than we did in the US, we still had the old style through 1985 which was also the last year for the D24 in the 240, so we never got any diesels with the later style front end. Anyway yours looks clean and not too rusty either.... sounds like pretty soon it will be a quick runner as well. :cool:

Where in Finland are you located? I was born in Helsinki....

Its bodyswap car. Registration document says -79 but really made year is 83 or 84. Its original petrol turbo-wagon but later somebody modified it turbo-diesel van because of taxes. And 79 is nice year too in finland because its last year when i dont have to take exhaust gas test in vehicle inspection.

I live in Jokioinen, south Finland. Distance between Jokioinen and Helsinki is littlebit over 100km. Nice to read that you are born here :)

Wow! There is a major lack of clearance! I have heard of people needing to notch the body to clear the turbo on a 240 D24+T conversion but I never understood why. I added a turbo to my 240 and I have plenty of room. I Wonder if there is different turbine shapes?
What are the specs on that turbo? How did you build your 12mm injection pump? Nice project.

The sound is great, the car became more cheerful.
Which gauges you used for indicate the boost?
This is the usual 52mm gauge?
I want to install something from the gauges Depo, but worried that there will not be seats.

Nice build, did you change the oil pan to the 244 pan or are you using the pan from the donor vehicle?
