I´ve been running non-OEM plugs for a few years and had no issues. In fact, you should run colder plugs (properly gapped) because it will help with knock prevention.

I did exactly what Lee suggested. Fitted poly bushes everywhere, IPD sways, endlinks and inserts, and Sachs shocks. Really happy with the results :)
I just did a quick search on eBay and found a subwoofer (w/ the bracket) and the wiring. The subwoofer should also bring the carpet/matt, but cannot understand from this listing if it's included or...
I have the top mount bush in poly (round version), poly inserts on the subframe bushes, small poly bush in the "torque rod" also known as the transmission mount (I kept the big bush OEM) and I have 0...
I have this one and no vibrations in the cabin....

There are good tuners out there that tune our cars by data logging on the road.
Mine was tuned this way. Much better in my opinion.
Here is the latest file I have on my car. It was tuned by Gustav (contrast).
The mods on my engine are:
Green Injectors
K24 with 11 blade billet wheel (non-hybrid)
Do88 BigPack
Do88 3" intake...
The OEM TCV handles better partial throttle also. The grey TCV "maxes" out the duty cycle with the K24. The OEM doesn't ;)
I had a grey TCV but Contrast asked to fit the OEM before tuning my car.
I got mine from here. Tons of them :D

My car wasn't pre-wired but I managed to buy a used wiring harness online, downloaded the Volvo instructions and it took me about 3 hours to have everything working.
When buying the wiring harness...
Yes :)

Ferrita makes great products. I'm very happy with my downpipe and catback. Keep in mind that Ferrita uses a 100 cell cat ;)
What about the new turbo from IPD? They claim higher hp with lower boost.
I know that he is tuning a S60R with a k24 hibrid with a 7+7 blade, bigger maf and injectors and already hit 1450kg/h.
Yes I do. I bought the almost new k24 from expolicev70t5 and had it rebuilt/balanced with the 11 blade from ARD.
I think it will be around 22psi.

I really like the sound of my Ferrita downpipe and catback. Nice burble at low rpms and when the turbo kicks in, the sound gets a lot more agressive. The 11 blade billet wheel made the exhaust tone a...

Mine had the same issue until 2 weeks ago the expansion tank finally gave up... The leak was on the expansion tank, that had a small crack on the bottom. Check yours.
If you have access to the round mount, this one is better ;)

Have no idea why it happened. The 3 engine mounts are brand new.

Great topic. These projects are inspiring :)
Lee,
Do you remember the part number of these valves?
Thanks
Looking great!
Superb!
