I've got one fitted to mine and its the genuine Volvo accessory item, it is designed to fit 99 model V70 and C70 but goes in the 850 with a few tweaks, it still utilises the standard rad cooler so in a way you transmission oil temperatures should remain stable even when not towing or working the car hard. I'd go for it.
Tbh I'd say yes to all of your planned mods, everything I've done to mine I've noticed an improvement in the way it drives and the car seems to go better for it which I see as a positive, I'm not one for driving fast myself but its nice to have the poke when its required.
They do indeed but have moved away from modifying cars to just maintaining them unless you're already an existing customer, that said nothing wrong with calling Russ and asking though...
