AHHHH PEFTECT! I've been looking parts and ways to modify/customize my air intake for my 02' S60 2.4T This video helps out a lot, but I still need to find the actual piping. Can anyone please direct me to a website for the item.
If you're already forced to replace your part because it cracked after 20 years, then why spend $165 on an oem part that'll break again when you can spend an additional $50 to ensure this part is more durable and will not crack?
Open filters are good with an actual cold air intake. Unfortunately most people do not have a real cold air. To be effective the intake should be ran out of the engine capartment. Usually near the bottom of the front bumper. The filter is also placed here. This gives fresh cold air. The fact is you would never see the filter in the engine capartment in a true cold air intake.
***** I agree with you on how volvo sets up their intakes. They do a great job compared to most vehicle manufactures. You are correct on the fact that an intake would pick up debris, but im talking for racing purposes. They would not be used for a daily driver vehicle. Im not talking about the big box auto store stuff that most kids put on their imports.
ReALliFe4nOw companies spend millions in testing to give you the best for tune, which is greatly based on emissions, hp, and economy. Do more research on your cold airs as they actually hurt you hp and economy in 99.9% of scenarios. This is why you see only one headlight on track cars. You need the air not only being forced in but also headers to cat exhaust upgrade, the cold air, and a tune to compensate for the changes in air to fuel. This is at minimum to see a hp difference.
it doesn't significantly enhance performance lol. adds a really nice engine noise and maybe a bit of extra hp, really good for turbo engines and relatively cheap but noticeably/fun mod
@lasthumain It actually adds a lot of response and increases airflow whether you have the stock airbox or an open element filter. Flow bench tests showed 120% increase over the stock pipe so there are gains to be had whichever setup you have. Plus it sounds a lot better :)
@ 4:26, would it not be easier to pre-attach the pipe to the coupler and tighten the T-bolt clamp down so the only one you'd have to fool with is the clamp that tightens the coupler to the turbo inlet? I think that's what I did on my 98 when I made an intake pipe for it. I don't recall that area working around the turbo being NEARLY as cramped as it is on my 99 either.
ok so ive installed an aftermarket hks bov and after reving it up enough for the bov to release pressure the car stall whil returning to idle if i rev it up half way it tries to stall almost like the car shuts off for a second any tips or help would be appreciated
which engine do you have? I have a 00 s80 t6 which has a factory blow off valve, but it also recirculates. I guess depending on which engine you have, and if it came with the factory bung type b.o.v or the bypass valve on the turbo itself.
LetsPlayDaPc where did u install the bov at? I mean what hose is it connected to? Also what bov u using? I put a hks on my c70 and it stalled first few times but I spent a day adjusting the nut on the back n it fixed the issue.
@lasthumain ...as well, remember, it's a "boy racer" mindset that makes people believe you have to have ridiculous open element systems in cars. Yeah, all the kids and magazines have the open air element. But the REALITY is ---> COLD (dense) OUTSIDE air is much better than HOT (thin) UNDERHOOD air. The advantage is often negligible. Cold air has more oxygen molecules per breath than hot underhood air. Kids do open elements because it gives them street cred. Makes them look like real racers.
lol.. you just replaced air hose with air hose xD what a waste of money.... you could just unplug the air cabinet on the original hose and clamp the open air filter instead. no need for all those shenanigans
Incorrect. Having installed one on my B5234T, your offered "solution" is rubbish- your moronic thinking would pull hot underhood air directly into the stock, high-restriction turbo air pipe. This SNABB pipe moves far more air (SNABB claims 120% greater airflow, and I can believe that). The turbo spools up quicker and throttle response is improved. The kit is not inexpensive, the the components are top qiality.
@@BobSmith-ur6uw The amount of air you suck in depends mostly on your turbo. ALL of the hoses are very smooth on the inside and air is not a fluid that "sticks" better or worse on some surfaces. You can put a normal hose or some "diamond" hose it wouldnt matter a tiny bit. The only thing that a better hose can do is provide you with better hose insulation so that your air that is passing through does not heat up too much too fast which would reduce performance. You made 0 points, you were just writing fancy names like all those "special quality stickers" people who talk about something which they have no clue about.
@@Dreamlink91 Are you that naive or just trolling? The stock intake hose is very restrictive like Bob Smith said. (on these volvo's) And not smooth on the inside at all and im not even talking about the narrow bend the stock hose has. The turbo has to work harder to suck the air in, logic should tell you that a harder working turbo is a slower working (spooling) turbo. I made a custom pipe myself and the turbo spools much quicker. Why comenting on subjects that you have obviously no knowlege about?? makes you look like a fool. Not trying to insult you or anything.
I don't understand what the heavy-duty clamps are for on a non pressurized piping.
Old comment, but you also don't want the engine pulling air from any small gaps, or anything other than through the maf.

Yes !
The writing on my upper pipe to the airboc
All that bother too need more rubber
would this work on a 960 ?
with a longitudinal engine?
Will this suit a 01 v70 2.4t?
yes
*airbox is upside down :(
Biggest waste of time and money I've seen. 🤦🏼♂️
How? The throttle inlet gets smaller than turbo inlet hole, which restricts airflow. I think a cold air intake is a bigger waste?
See my comment above. You have no clue what you are beaking off about.

What does metal pipe do better besides conduct more heat?
linandy1 doesn’t flex
Not sure how just a metal intake could significantly enhance performance?

How much was the kit
Nvm, it's clearly on the video. Thanks uploader and great website for some of the parts you will need for tuner wise!

No becus you dont have a turbo car
where did you get the tube from ?
i have a 98 v70 t5 does that have turbo and what does the t5 stand for??
+Gus Ruiz T stands for Turbo. 5 for the five cylinders it has.
+Gus Ruiz T-5 is the high pressure turbo. i believe has a t16 turbo
You mean that it increases 21%, not 120% that is what the homepage says. ;)
120% of 100 equals 120. Hence a 20% increase.
What's the point of putting the pipe without removing the box
Less restriction of airflow to turbo - this is most restrictive part of intake.

No thanks; I'll trust the Volvo engineers before I trust a clever marketing team.
The volvo engineers designed a plastic part that cracks and breaks over time. Super trustworthy 😂
