The 850 T (M56hk swap, KWV2's, Quaife LSD, Turbotuner all going in soon.)

The XC60 T6 AWD

The new (to me) S60 2.5 T

Thanks for looking!

Welcome back. New XC60

Got a friend with one, says he loves it. Coming off owning a Range Rover LS3.

I must say I like the 850 best of all. The sidemarkers, mirror lights, R chin spoiler, R wheels... damn pretty.

I'm surprised you went that far but didn't do the decklid spoiler.

Thanks for posting. Good stuff.

The XC60 is quite nice (and quite fast). I actually removed the turbo spoiler on the 850 for a bit of a different look and will be putting a R spolier back on eventually.

Thanks Matt!

Love it.

Five speed swap? Very nice. LSD = limited slip diff? How fast is she?

Nice 850!

What kind/model bike rack is that? I used to have a Thule for my Saab, but it won't fit on the Volvo, so I've been looking to get a new one, and I like the way that one looks

Hey guys!

The M56hk swap is from a 2002 C70 that was parted (40,000 on the transmission.) I have a Quaife automatic torque biasing differential that replaced the open differential. It has an external slave cylinder, single mass flywheel, and brass shifter bushings with a shortened throw.

Its actually still has the stock turbo (3'' DP to TME catback) but I do have a Turbotuner ECU for when then engine is built and I learn how to handle it again, lol.

Fairly involved suspension and brake modifications as well ...

Roof rack and bike stuff is all Volvo OEM Thule.

Cheers!

Will you kindly stay away for 12 months again? You're making us very jealous.
