    sounds good, but what you have to watch out for is the cylinder block cracking between the cylinders. this is why the t5 2.3 turbo has smaller pistons, meaning there further apart from each other so the walls between them are thicker. this was volvos reason for making the hpt a smaller cc.
    would suggest regular oil and coolant changes to keep on top of it

      as long as u dont push them over 400 bhp they are fine and i change oil every 4000 miles and water every 8000 miles and i dont drive the car like a loony only on tracks i open her up
