Transcript

Worst people think this is just a boring oversized soccer mom Yes, and that's exactly why it makes one of the most ridiculous sleeper builds on the road. This is the first generation Volvo XC 90 v eight. You can pick one up for under $10 and to 99% of traffic, it completely disappears in a school drop off line. But hiding under the hood is an absolute masterpiece. It's powered by a 4.4 liter naturally aspirated v eight designed and built by Yamaha. It is literally the exact same engine block that Noble twin turbocharged for their 200 mile per hour m 600 supercar. From the factory, Volvo made it completely silent. But with just a few changes, it turns into a complete menace. All you need is a custom intake and ECU tune, and worst importantly, a full custom exhaust system to let the Yamaha block breathe. Suddenly, this heavy Swedish tank sounds exactly like a track prepped exotic. It launches incredibly hard with the all wheel drive system, pulls relentlessly on the highway, and will genuinely confuse modern muscle cars when they get gapped by a family hauler with a car seat in the back. It's basically a supercar engine trapped in a grocery getter. So good you build this Swedish sleeper?
