    did you put in the hose on the side of the airbox like Kevins post said there are three hoses there?

    i looked and mine has three hoses color coded i think green blue and red?

    so you removed one hose capped it and pot in a T fitting? what line was capped nad what line was T'ed?

    thanks for the clearifacation.

    i had a G-valve on my old 244 turbo and would like to put one on my 850.

    Thanks,

    Dan

    Okay, so are you going to give us a performance update? How much more does your Volvo have? How much do these run, and are there any reliablity issues? I want more power out of my '95 854 Turbo, but want it to stay reliable.

      Jay, I'm sure you will find your reliability decaying proportionally to the percentage of power added above that of your 850's factory settings.
