Interesting build. Thanks for sharing it.
Going to be rather laggy I should imagine so I imagine your going for a quarter mile and not a track car.
Wish automotive parts were as cheap here as they are in the states, be more builds over here then. Me included.
750cc injectors should give a decent duty cycle with the standard 3 bar regulator, since it maintains 3 bar injector pressure over boost. ME7 uses static 3.8 bar which is a PITA due to pressure drop when on boost ie. 1.5 bar boost leaves only 2.3 bar injection pressure. P2R's and later 2.4 T5 changed to the electronic equivalent of the simple system on the 850. Nice recall on P2R in the states for faulty sensor on that, Volvo UK just didn't bother and tried to stiff us as usual.
