Glad to see that you like the Volvo.
I've changed the whole interior from beige to black, changed the sunroof from steel to glass. Headlights are changed to US-type, original volvo styling skirts.
I'm on my third gearbox, and second rear diff. I got a new rear axle for it with LSD, which I think will help on the fun.
Bilstein Racing shocks, lesjöfors springs (swedish brand), 25mm/1" sway bars in front and rear + top sway bar.
Brakes are slightly upgraded.
Homemade exhaust 2,5" all the way, with equal length headers and racecat.
2DIN head unit and four 6,5" speakers in the doors, two 6x9" speakers in the back along with two 12" subwoofers, makes a great noise.
A lot of minor changes as well.

The engine is mostly stock, but produces about 160hp, at least when it was new.. But it works here on the tight norwegian roads, sits pretty well on the road.
But ofcourse it needs a turbo, so thats the plan for it. I'm not going crazy with 700-800hp, but around 400hp and I'll be happy.

Love it.....brings back memories watching touring car in the eighties and early nineties. Please do a separate thread for this!
