A Japanese Turbo Manifold for My Swedish Volvo V70R

In this video I'm attempting an upgrade that is a commonly discussed Volvo topic. The "Japanifold" is a Japanese made turbo manifold only found on a few early 2000's turbo Volvos and it is a common upgrade on R Volvos when trying to gain power and improve the exhaust note.

    ey bro, this is great content 👌 over a decade ago, i was in the Volvo game and the debate was actually that the 'R' manifold flowed better - which is why Volvo made it for this car (which was the most powerful Volvo at the time). as time went on the debate continued and ppl started proving the Japanifold was better for high power builds.. Volvospeed was a top forum back then and everybody was actually tuning 850s.. i had a T-5R myself. now *any 850 is rare and your generation has moved onto these.. P2 is your '850' lol although Volvospeed is essentially dead now (having most posts 1+yr old and volvo being Chinese), there is still very useful information and it's really cool to see young ppl use it! like the 850, grab what you can now, because what's out there is out there eventually GONE.

Still plan on getting one, but good to know that you can swap the turbo, obviously with some extra mods... When it comes to being under the car for awhile, I like to get it on some ramps because they give you plenty of room to work!! If you need even more room, jack up the rear end and put ramps under the rear tires
