Forged Pistons/Performance? 850 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be Jeff on  Sun Oct 22 16:30 CST 2000 [RELATED]

Looking at several different options, especially turbochargers, it seems that we, the N/A 850 volvo owners are doomed to 200bhp or less. I looked at aftermarket superchargers made by Mosselman, but can't find any info on the company, or how to contact them. I'm wondering if investing in a tune-up and getting forged pistons, then getting a nitrous system wouldn't be the way to go. I mean, you get horsepower on demand, it seems like a good idea. I've heard good and bad. Usually people say it'll blow up your engine, but from what I've read, its hard to do that if you install it correctly. I know Eastern Eurospace sells a kit for the naturally aspirated volvos, so what to do, anyone?
