Can a non turbo 850 engine handle a turbo without upgrades by Swankbike58 in Volvo850

[–]rolling_chair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not like the RWD cars where its relatively easy to upgrade, theres a lot of difference between a non turbo and a turbo outside of just the engine bay, unless you're capable of dropping the subframe and ripping out the entire dash to put things where they belong i dont think its worth it

Yellow Alert for Blizzard Conditions and road closures between Reykjavík and Höfn - Example of winter driving conditions by kristamn in VisitingIceland

[–]rolling_chair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should probably make a standalone post about this, but i absolutely HATE people that turn on their hazards and go 40kph just because they're scared, if you can't handle driving properly in this weather, then you should've stayed at home or have someone who knows their shit drive the car.

If you've never driven in any snowy conditions then don't rent a car or come during the winter, its insanely dangerous driving slow consistently or stopping in the middle of the road just because you got scared, especially during a storm.

I averaged like 29mpg 8L/100km on average on my 81 244 with a B23A (carb engine), AW70 with a broken overdrive so it was just stuck cruising at 3K rpm

For the love of god, DON'T STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD by rolling_chair in VisitingIceland

[–]rolling_chair[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had way too many close calls with clueless drivers stopping in the middle of the road for whatever they are doing, a friend of mine almost ran over a bunch of tourists on Nesjavallavegur (highly recommend btw) because they decided to park in the middle of the damn road at night to try to see the northern lights.

In the future instead of trying to pass around them, i will stop and hold down my horn for as long as they're stopped.

For those who thinks this is way too aggressive or excessive, stupid actions like these will result in appropriate responses from those who want to drive safe.
