[thingk89]

@ 6:40 a suzuki ario beats you. Why did you post the very long video?

[randy25rhoads]

Very nice. Thanks for not putting ridiculous music over a driving vid.

[MFLPF]

[vladimirdanov]

[jonokiller]

@vladimirdanov oh i am now, but im in my 1980 535i

[AntiVot]

i have the 740 to ...and i love it ....

[kiss2army]

i´ve got a red 740 gle but i would love to have a turbo on it, had a 945 turbo before and i ran it 0-60 ( 0 - 100 km/h) in just over 9 sec

[blackaspen1]

my 572 vette does it on 2.8 sek so i just pownd you home

[WindowsBreakerG4]

Yea and he probably payed 1/100th of what you did, and for another 15-20k he could have a car that would run low 10s, still less then your silly vette cost :P

[neninho69]

i have a 760 turbo all red inside! i just love this car!

[gizmo98550]

i just got an 88 740 turbo myself.. 3 days ago.. that sumbitch is FAST!!!!

[paintball7723]

I have the same one (white w/ red interior) turbo, its my 2nd 740 and i love it!

[davison1021]

well dude you didnt really gun it once

[jonokiller]

yeha not really cause i was still getting used to a manual. this was my first manual car.

[cosvvorth2008]

no acselaration att all!!!

[basherman1987]

hey man nice to see that that the volvo 740 is kicking ass in the states to ....

what have you done under the hood and how much does it put out??

[jonokiller]

it had a turbo camp adjustable cam gear and a boost controller dont know how much it was putting out. i dont have it anymore.

[TwiztedTurbo]

These cars are very slow stock but have a lot of potential.Not like the 850T5 where all you need is a chip however.

[gonate1]

850 and alla s/v series sucks all power to good old volvo

[thecommentator001]

i dont wana watch this anymore

you signaled coming off of the parallel park spot. youre a badass

[Fastback91]

ahahahahaha

[zorex270]

BTw nice driving. not many ppl in u.s can drive manual gearbox. or "stick shift"

[zorex270]

seems boring to drive in the u.s. there are to much crossings and no roundabouts. :(

[jonokiller]

yeah and way to much traffic, but there are 2 round abouts near me that are fun to drive but no ones knows what yield means so they just drive into the roundabout when im driving through.

yeah i wouldn't own a non manual car unless it had very good paddle shift but i would still prefer manual.

[davison1021]

mines an auto but the firewall has a hole for the clutch n-e ways weird

[alfiebrod]

when ever seeing this vid i sure miss my old 740 tic.......

[brianteoh11]

ohh... I'm sorry about that I've made a mistake.

The weather of Sweden is also diffrent with Colorado or anywhere in the US. Many Germany cars or Sweden cars or England cars, they will make the cars only good or the life long in the place where they make the cars.

[brianteoh11]

I like this cars' sounds. where do you bought this car? In US? Canada? or where? Volvo is a car company made in England. if the place that the weather is diffrent, then your car life will be down. Like.... Audi's life is very bad in US, but for Germany, Audi's life is very long.

[jonokiller]

I bought the car in the US used from the first owner who bought it in Colorado.

Volvo is made in Sweden not England.

[djkasdjkasdjdjdj]

what do you mean? no there's no manual transmission or all automatic?

[jonokiller]

they made both

to edit my original one "no,they made them in manual also."

[djkasdjkasdjdjdj]

there's no manual transmission in 740 right?

cause mine is automatic.

[jonokiller]

no they made 740s in manual.

[jaialaisavant]

740 turbos with a manual transmission are really hard to find

[jonokiller]

yeah i got lucky finding it.

[djkasdjkasdjdjdj]

yeah i have the same car here, and its still good!!!

[freedetheman]

Nice car, I have the same :) Here in Sweden on the winter powersliding is the shit ^^

[jonokiller]

yeah when it rains here in socal i love sliding around.

i need to do a new video with all the mods that are now on it. and i found a better place to drive

[yourmomsahomo]

I love volvo engine sounds for some reason lol :)

[jonokiller]

you should hear the sound now. it has a better intake and higher revving cam and a cam gear.

[volvoforlife1]

sounds nice, need to rev that engine higher 1st to 2nd for some better accel!

[jonokiller]

hadnt been driving a stick for very long when i did this but now the car is even better.

cam shaft, adjustable cam gear. and soon more boost.

[parkskola]

Fan va dåligt

[jonokiller]

if you are saying the fan is bad (the one on the engine i assume) at one point it was off a bit and got one tip shaved down so it sounds bad im planning on replacing with electric fan.

"om du er ordstav den solfjäder är dålig ( den en på det motor jag anta ) på en punkt den var bort en smula och fik en spets raka ned så den ljuden dålig im planeringen på ersättande med elektrisk solfjäder."

[shamyrock]

he said: "damn that sucks)

[basherman1987]

don t take it personal they are just volvo haters
