Re: Aftermarket ECU for '97 850 T5 (Wagon)

What Matt said - get a generic t5 ECU for starters. May not match your emissions setup but sounds like those few codes will be minor. 1997 T5 was Motronic 4.4, the 1996 turbos were Motronic 4.3 so better to *not* get a 96 or earlier ECU. Only the GLT(US) LPT was M4.4 in '97 (Well, for the turbo car...

Re: Volvo M56 Shifter Bushings Upgrade Kit (P80 series)

Nice-looking bit of kit.

We do a bit of printing with Nylon (and higher temp industrial materials) at work. It's not terrible to print with the proper equipment.

Re: VS M4.4 tuning dead? Start again here?

Re: VS M4.4 tuning dead? Start again here?

That chip isn't a needed item. Not sure what it is, but it's not on a few of the turbo boards I've looked at.

Can you post a pic of the label from the ECU?
