MuchBoost 2.3T B230FT hybrid turbo, Volvo 740 2.3T (300–400 hp)

MuchBoost 2.3T B230FT hybrid turbo, Volvo 740 2.3T, 300–400 hp

A bolt-on MuchBoost hybrid turbo for applications including Volvo 740 2.3T, Volvo 740 2.3T Wagon. This upgrade is built for 2.3T B230FT applications and retains a clean, vehicle-specific installation.

The turbo is based on original MHI housings. The upgraded compressor and higher-flow turbine sides provide considerably more capacity than the factory unit, while the housings are precision-machined for the new internals.

Depending on the selected version, the manufacturer rates the turbo for approximately 300–400 hp. Final output depends on engine condition, the fuel system, intake, exhaust, cooling and, above all, the ECU calibration.

An upgraded turbo always requires vehicle-specific ECU calibration.
