    So quiet abig update for those who are following this, this month has been expensive but worth it. Had the following done:

    PCV kit all fitted
    RIP kit fitted properly, bottom intercooler pipe wasn't seated properly
    Cam seal was leaking oil (not seated properly)
    Polybushed top engine mount fitted
    Gear linkage bush replaced
    Wheel bearing tightened properly (garage didnt do it properly after CV gaitor change)
    Rear brace fitted, after parts for volvo sourced the correct bolts

    And finally found the boost problem, due to a faulty TCV. Now boosting properly.

    Now the car needs a wash, its dirty. Future plans are to sort the exhaust, have an angled flange and need a 3" downpipe to get one made.

    Thanks to Frankie for all hes help and Tim Williams.

    It's honestly like day and night pal,

    Now all she needs is suspension change/updating, polybush some more and wheels and tyres and I'd say I'm done til I get use to the way it drives.
