R-Sport catalog (PDF)

Post by **Fuse** » 21 Nov 2006 11:37 am

I found a complete R-Sport catalog in PDF form.

225 pages.

Though some of the info are from the first catalogs as for example RS tuning kit for 300-series isn't listed, but still there are some very interesting bits for 300-series.

For example roll cage (not full though), 30% stiffer front and rear springs, sport shocks intended for rally use (are those front shocks mono tube

certainly looks like they are), strut brace, sport gearings for M45R etc... Very interesting.

It's in Swedish though but I can translate parts if someone wants something specific translated.

There are also lot's of green books and other Volvo related stuff in that page also. Though most are for P1800-series but if someone's interested http://volvo1800pictures.com/ those are under "Dokumentation"

Interesting parts, including a factory strut brace (which almost certainly only fits a B14 car).

Fuse: What the hell is the kit on pages 185-211. I've never seen that before...

cheers

It's the VERY rare Group-A kit for the 240 Turbo (B21ET) engine code with that kit is B21ETL.

It includes new turbo (T3/T4 hybrid), water injection system

(like the aquamist), new cam axel (GrpA cam), new oil cooler and the EFI intake manifold.

EFI manifold had the water sprays and modified Bosch Jetronic controlled those.

Kinda cool system.. It was very advanced and still is. Here's some info

Water Injection - Used to increase engine efficiency and to cool exhaust valves. System was modified Bosch Jetronic fuel injection (with airmass meter or map sensor, high pressure pump and four "yellow" Bosch EFI injectors). Water injection was also sequential, meaning the injector only sprays on the intake stroke when the valve is open for minimum water use. The amount of water injected is around 10% of the regular fuel, the solution being a mix of water, alcohol and cutting fluid, the latter used to save the injectors from rust.

So it's quite a nice packet.

They had to put that out so they could homologate the 240 GrpA with those parts.

Edit: And of course boost was raised with that kit too.

I thought it must be a homologated version of the Group A stuff, but it seemed too good to be true!

cheers

Some pics are showing the GrpA cooler too, but I'm not sure if that came with the kit.. Probably you could buy that too if you wanted..

And there are some references to complete new head also..

Well, anyhow, very cool stuff.
