Volvo engine build up questions

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if you could help me with something.
We're going to build a B21ET engine for some serious performance.
We want it to make it 400hp proof and streetable.
Probably not with turbo but with a supercharger from a Audi S5 3.0 TFSI

What would you recommend to do with the engine.
Pistons? Rods? Cam?
Head is going to be ported. and probably a K-cam.
Oh yeah, and were to get the parts.....

Thanks,

MVH,

I don´t think you can get 400hp with that supercharger.

Stock pistons and after market rods with H-profile works with turbocharger but it´s more stress with supercharger so you can be forced to change the pistons to.

Well we have to see if we can get a new housing made for the supercharger.
Otherwise we will go back to turbo. But it will have to give 400hk at some time....

On a side note.
I tried to get in contact with KL-Racing (e-mail), but i didn't get a reply.
Should i try to call them, or order through their webshop?

Thanks,

Pjotr

I think it would be best to call them

Go for b230ft/et with oil-cooled pistons

The problem is we have to keep this car roadlegal with the original engine.

many volvo engines look almost the same so would the guys who control the car see that?

Yes, they check if the engine number belongs to the car.
Also if you have a horsepower gain of more then 40% you have to get the car checked and a sort of re-registering...
All just to make more money....
