Give us more info on the setup! I realize that it's a 4.8, but don't those numbers seems low too (like Fairmont 5)? 18 psi and just made 500? Seems odd.

Its an 8.8 out of an explorer. I narrowed the long side to use a short side axle and with the Billet wheel adapters its within half inch of the same width as the volvo rear.

Not the car the thread is about, but damn, 650 wheel is impressive for this combination with the little exhaust wheel in that On3 76mm turbo, isn't it?
