Hello. I do not know how well this will translate, or if it will translate from English to Dutch. Please forgive me: I do not speak Dutch. I only speak bad english: I am an American.
If I understand it correctly, someone here found my galleries at Pbase.com. And it sounds like they liked what they saw. Thank you.
On the subject of turbo manifolds, the 90+ manifold is beetter than the "old style" manifold [1981-1989]. The 90+ manifold can flow much better than the old style if the outlet is ported [enlarged] to match the turbine housing inlet. Those are the things I show in my pictures.
I have installed the 90+ manifold on B21FT and on B230FT motors. The improvements were noticeable on both size engines. The improvement is so good that I do not like to reinstall the old style manifold anymore: I prefer to upgrade the motor to the 90+ manifold.
I may not be understanding it correctly, but I think that someone is wondering if it is worthwhile to install a 90+ manifold on a B200 turbo motor. I would say definitely yes!
It will help the engine breathe better, even if the car still has the stock diameter [2.25in] exhaust system. If the exhaust is upgraded to 2.5in or 3in, the improvement is even more noticeable.
Thank you for visiting my galleries at Pbase.com. I will visit here at volvolvo.nl as often as I can. [and I think that I will have to buy myself a Dutch to English dictionary]
