V70R parts on an xc70 question

[Hamfist]

I can get a nice used v70r exhaust and downpipe for pretty cheap. As far as I understand, the underbelly of all the P2 wagons are the same. Will it all bolt up?

Also it's a catless downpipe... O2 adaptors, or not needed?

Next question, I have read that in the quest for more powah the problem is the auto trans. Will a used auto trans from a v70r bolt up?

Ugh many questions!!

The R transmissions have the same internal parts as the XC - And are just as likely to have valve body problems

Huh! How can the v70r handle more tq than the xc70 (from what I have read on here)

Anyhoo, exhaust answers anyone?

The torque is electronically limited in the lower gears with the automatic, the manual transmission v70r/s60r is not limited in power in the lower gears. You can have the torque limit removed with a Hilton or (can't remember the other guys) tune.

Exhaust fits just fine, I did this many years ago to a 2001
You many have to carefully trim a little plastic from your bumper but done slowly and carefully with the correct touch up paint, no one but you will see it but you.

Same transmission in both cars
