This has mate a massive difference to reliable performance. Car now holds the boost at 16psi to red line even when on the motorway where boost used to back off to 10psi after few miles of boost

Got a 19T to fit yet but just concerned about the rods so going save up and get them upgraded first.i must say with larger intake off the R with the k and n fitted plus intercooler I've noticed a big difference in reliable performance. I also have a progressive water injection kit to install yet and larger injectors all on my work desk.

Mate the boost gauge position is perfect. Really easy to see and read. I'm amazed ipd haven't had them made as it's far better then in a air vent or pillar. Really does look like a genuine volvo part now.

Lovely coversion - needs dark seats, black perhaps with red piping to carry the theme.

I could get the black seats but just think the car looks too dark and dull. The cream gives it some light. The red looks odd in the pictures but real world it actually looks really good. Will give it some thought though lol

Really happy with how the colour has turned out especially as it's Churchill red which only cost £45 for 5 litres compared with £195 for volvo red. Looks a better red when side by side.

Just think the beige gives the car a fresher and brighter look and feel.

youve done a cracking job on the car. black carpets would make all the difference. ill post some pics of my interior.

I think if you added panels or hints (like you did with the steering wheel and gear knob) with red piping then it would not be too dark.

That actually looks really good. Might have to get the carpets now then. Looks about right. Hated the cream dash and console

You've done a great job, I'm liking that steering wheel. As has already been commented on I think you need the darker carpets.

Thanks guys, value all ur advice and opinions which is why I've posted to get a feel what u all think and what improvements I could do. The seat colour being one but I'm fighting myself over it as when I sit in the car the beige does look really nice and brightens up the interior. Mate has the dark interior and the car just seems dull and colourless. If I had a red Ferrari I'd have the cream interior I'm thinking lol
