This car shares a lot with Jonas car: MembersPage/MattiasSandgren/VolvoBtwenty

Basically the same engine configuration, only this one is turbo-charged.

The engine now has a rebuilt bottom-end and there must have been an incredible amount of blow-by on the old bottom-end because VE increased almost 20% at higher loads, with no other changes. The turbo is much more responsive too.

The injectors have been wired in series with a 6.8 Ohm 50W resistor for each injector and a transient protection diode (Zener) has been added to the flyback wire. The total opening time has increased for a given effective pulse width but the accuracy seems to have increased due to more effective flyback control.

There is still problems with EGT readings, I will look into that very soon as the car will go on to a dyno in a few weeks and then put into storage for the winter.

The car ran 12.34 sec @ 174 km/h at the "local" dragstrip in PiteƄ, north of Sweden. A very nice result for such a simple setup. 110 kPa boost and very little tuning. [Movie here]
