1998 Volvo v70 t5m
Monday, July 04, 2016 6:35 PM
We were looking for an extra vehicle for my wife to drive that would be more fuel efficient than her jeep commander when she runs back and forth to drill.

Picked up this 1998 Volvo v70 t5m. It's... Not stock...


The day we picked it up


A little cosmetic change






Car has 3" catless exhaust, intake, 16t turbo, na cams, R intake and exhaust manifolds, and a reflashed ecu. Car blows the tires off when boost comes on in 2nd gear.

Plans are to eventually drop the car and do some suspension work.

Fun Family Wagons are the best option.



I miss my Cavalier, even if it made 100 hp on a cold day and had more suspension then it deserved.

Picked up some free race rubber for the Volvo. Should work as a temp autox car while the sedan is apart.

They've got 1 maybe 2 events left in them... And they were free so hard to pass up.

They are hankook z214's for those that are curious.

No sir... we bought it as an extra car and decided we didn't want to put the $$ it needed into it to get it to get it inspected.
