15 years ago......I watched this video and found the best sounding engine of all time. It was actually the music clip that made me remember the video clip. Take this as a huge complement from a rotary RX7 driver here 😎
This video single handedly got me into motorsports almoat 2 decades ago!! I was a young boy who only thought cars were boring because you just drove slow in them (with parents) to go places, became immediately hooked on cars being suped up and drifting around 😊
I was there. At Vallåkraträffen the day and saw this car on the coned track. Have loved Volvo 740 ever since and it really sparked the whole tuning era in my life. Wonderful video that has inspired many over the years. It might not seem extreme today, but back then this was completely insane.
I wish we had real Volvo enthusiasts in Dallas,TX. I would love to build a true-name Volvo that'll make these Ford, Honda, & Porsche guys tuck their tails. My first Volvo was an '83 760 GLE RWD V6, which was fun but I think it had a Pugeot engine. I lost that car, but everytime I see this video I think of what could've been.lol. Volvos aren't to be taken lightly. They're demons lying dormant waiting to be tapped. Volvo: motorsports' sort-of underated/sort-of best kept secret.lol
By the way oh, if you ever pull out the old red block by hand, just remember that when you lift it up the car front wheel raised by about 3 in so you better dig deep hahaha very tough motor
How can 10 people not like this?? Is it because their they feel inferior in their silly little Opel Corsa's?? All l can say is well done to the owner. Never has a Volvo 740 looked so damn sexy!!!!
@terribrad24 It`s a B230 redblock engine (the most common engine in Sweden, as common as the 350 block in the US) Straight four engine, 2,3L, 16 valve, 116 hp original, that can withstand up to more than 1000 hp ;) I do not know more than that.
@DILightning The tuning is about as standard as it is with the rest of the volvos. US Spec only has a LPT and no manual so just like us US 850 owners you are going to need to swap. ECU Exhaust and DP will put you at around 300hp - Then you need rods. Just gonna have to get them or risk your motor. More power to you though, the S40 is a nice car, can be tuned but its pretty expensive and not as good a base as a 70 or 850 series IMO. Still an awesome volvo though :-)
I remember watching this as a kid, literally a decade ago.
Same, I was like 5 when I have seen this first time :D
Same i was 7 when i first time watching this video i have a 240 tho but im still savin up my money to buy a 740 turbo 😄
I remember watching this as an adult, 13 years ago...
Same I used to have a 760 turbo.
I watched this while deployed in 2008 and ended up building a 16v 242 because of it.
Now it's turbo LS swapped.

@DILightning
The tuning is about as standard as it is with the rest of the volvos. US Spec only has a LPT and no manual so just like us US 850 owners you are going to need to swap. ECU Exhaust and DP will put you at around 300hp - Then you need rods. Just gonna have to get them or risk your motor. More power to you though, the S40 is a nice car, can be tuned but its pretty expensive and not as good a base as a 70 or 850 series IMO. Still an awesome volvo though :-)
Badass! I will never look at a 90's Volvo the same again!!! Is there a lot of aftermarket support or is he all custom? Either way I love it!
Ton of aftermarket it's the swedish civic in terms of possibilities. Well more the fwd whiteblock but just as much options for the rwd redblocks.
18 cops dont like
10+ Car handling!! :) Wonder how long those last with that much grunt.... :D
This guy must pay out a fortune in tyres...
In Sweden, its called Breesladd :D
this vis is so old but so hard.
That's a pimp car.
My dad showed this to me when I little. This video ruined me
AMAZING Volvo! WOW
Having driven stock 2.0l 740, to make it do things like that on tarmac... just wow.
SWE-PWR!!! 💪🇸🇪❤😁
I WANT THAT CAR!!
