Operation Get Out of its Own Way

[PKFIRE]

Ended up going with a 2002 CRV spring. Correct OD and length is good. Based on one of those online calculators it’s 214 in-lbs. The stock Volvo is 120. It may sit an inch or two higher once I put it on the ground.

Nice!

What Lifters did you install?

LS7 BTR

Cool. Hope the springs solve your problems. I have a thfew sets of coil over springs I need to get rid of from figuring out what rate I needed for the rear. Then I added weight and had to change again! Lol. Hope to see this soon.

I’m just trying stuff also. I went through the internet trying to find an alternative spring that may work.

lookin good Joe. So when will it debut?

I’ve been driving it and parking it because I can’t stop messing with it. It will hopefully be ready the next time I see everyone.

Finally got the car back on the ground again with the 02 CRV front springs and new struts. I marked the towers to keep the alignment. I broke a swaybar link trying to take the driver side apart and Christmas pushed out the shipping.

Took it to the track recently. I’m already switching some items out from then. Hopefully will be in 11s once Edgewater reopens next year.

Best time was a 12.24@112.84

It’s pretty sleeperish,haha. I just put a different Turbo in it. Had a GT45 and went to a 7875 turbo. Not sure where to dump the exhaust yet. Hopefully in the Spring I’ll be able to get an 11 out of it.
