    I swapped out the auto early on - I wouldn't run over 14psi (on a 16T, the 13g/T is really not good for above 10-11psi - it will just push hot air) on the auto trans, unless you don't care about longevity

    I know some have run way over stock WHP on FWD autos, and the AWD trans is the same unit, but somewhere around 250BHP (XC's are around 190BHP) is probably the safe limit for trans longevity, with an additional trans cooler added.

    Swapped in SNABB (aka sconeman) turbo intake pipe (post-MAF). Wow what a change. Wow what a pain the butt though to do. I see why Volvo did the reduced size intake. There's no space in there!!!!!
