What are the specs on the T35? I have a GT30/82R and am thinking of getting a 940 to put it on. I take it the Volvo stock manifold is of the T3 footprint?

Cheers

Do you have a build thread for your car or a list of all the mods you have done to it? I'm only going to run it at 1 bar to start with just to try not to break anything lol What is the best year 940 to get in terms of having a locking diff, M90 gearbox LH 2.4 and all the good stuff?

I believe the 300 series are better for drifting. Even 50/50 weight distribution.

Although a 2.3 Turbo 940 slammed with a welded diff and a boost controller would be quite fun i think

No chance, a 940 with stronger drivetrain, options of locking diffs, more powerful engines and better lock would be better for drifting. They're also cheaper and easier to find! My old 940 wentworth was much easier to get sideways than any of my 300's

Id of thought it was the other way around...

Makes you wonder why there are so many 300 series on the drift scene lol
