Putney Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 i think 265- 320 is the perfect amount of power.. has to be rear wheel drive though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_chris1981 Posted May 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 well since this is front wheel drive i reckon 225 will do for now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfbr Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 Must say the torque delivery from these T5 engined vehicles is absolutely outstanting style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> I've driven a V70 and an 850 with the engine in, an they are just superbly smooth, yet somewhat frighteningly quick for the size of vehicle ! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2001gti Posted June 1, 2007 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 dont they use the T5 engine in the new focus st? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_chris1981 Posted June 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 think so, and from what i understand, the volvo 5 cylender engines are a further progression of the old 5 pots that audi used in quattros etc.I now know why old people love volvos....250bhp powered armchair.....
