    Hello
    My name is Michael and I am from Germany.
    I have a 71 Torino with 302cui.
    I put a compressor in it last Month.
    Runs on a carburetor with blow thru.
    It runs fine on its own. But I still have some questions and need some tips.

    I also have a Volvo 850 T-5R original with turbo, but slightly tuned.

    I hope you can help me partly.

    Greetings

    Guten Tag! Welcome to the the TurboForums! Cool car don’t see too many in the US I guess some ended up in Europe. Let’s have some more info on the engine. Turbo?. What carb? Are you tuning with a wideband o2? If not it might be a good idea.

    Torino has stock 302cui and C4 transmission.
    I did it oldschool. Original ignition, mechanical fuel pump pressurized, supercharger with V-belt.
    Supercharger is Powerdyne BD-11a (I know many don't like it. For me it fits).
    Carb is Holley 650 DP made for blow through, but not from me.
    At the moment i have max. 5-6PSI (I don't want to go on about the old engine).
    Tuning with a wideband o2.

    I still have to optimize the carburetor, because it runs too rich in the middle rpm range. But I'm gonna bring up in extra topic.

    Volvo is from 1996. Engine and turbo (15g) are stock. Controller is M4.4 with optimized software.
