Volvo: volvo turbo, car motor, boat motor


Question
I have a AQ131A volvo boat motor I would like to boost the hp by putting a turbo on it what car motor's could I take one from.

Answer
Rob,
All the Volvos I work on are passenger cars and not diesels, but all the turbos have a hole or passage in the block to return oil from the turbo. Now I would say that your block does not even have that passage so would be VERY difficult at best to turbo charge it.
