Thanks for the diagram. I managed to get the door moving correctly. With the endoscope through the center vents I could see that the door was too high up and was actually bottoming out to the section that was supposed to be the normal upper limit. I guess running the fan with the doors disconnected ...

anyone know where to find a pic of the engine bay layout. I know how the subframe looks on a normal 850 and x70. I'd like to find out how they set the engine that far back. perhaps elongated engine mounts? I have read somewhere (??) that the engine move required fender well cutting and reforming of...

And the reason they would be less ideal is torque. The GLT/XC Low pressure turbo spools faster to deliver low to midrange torque to get you moving. The T-5/R has a smaller displacement, lower compression ratio, and a turbo that kicks in higher, and runs higher for highway passing and top-end. Contra...

. You can also just swap in the RN oil pan and coolant pipes, just to get the cooler on an N setup.

That is what's happening on my N motor. With that and the manual swap, I'll have NO oil/trans lines out to the radiator from the engine.

Check with bdub , who is In. The middle of a 19T turbo upgrade on his old car..thread in December

I have a 2000 V70R with the 19T turbo. Some will say bigger is better and some cases that may be. However, the 19T is a big turbo and it is slow to respond compared to the smaller 16T and even the 18T. It may give more power higher up in the rev range, but for a daily driver it is a bit of a slug. N...

Continue to check on the ECU, seems to me all US 98 Rs had 16Ts on them, went up to 18T for 99 and 19T for 00. 98 Manual Rs got the 18T but that was not over here. But I don't have an R so I can't tell you for sure.

The '98 V70R AWD had a B5234T4 with an 18T.

Parts are pricey but have tried these guys? I can't speak for others but when I sued them a few years ago they were very helpful.

Under the passenger side of the dash, if you remove the glove box liner and the lower dash cover, just to the left of the heater fan there is a rectangular electric unit about 3" x 2" in the air pipe from the blower motor to the evaporator. Removing the resistor pack allows you to get a ca...
