Steve do you have a thread on installing the 6-speed box? I was thinking about this for my S70

Nothing difficult about doing it, it's the same as 5sp if your using a Volvo s60 / v70 box, need to move rear mount over with spacer is all really.

If not then a bit more fabrication is needed this is the route I / Oblark have gone 4 times now, works awesomely and the ratios are very fast / close on the st box, it incorporates a quick shift as well and it's like a rifle bolt , unfortunately the parts we used aren't available.

The S60 diesel box that will be going in my 850 have batter ratios than the ST box.

Definately better if your running more power, otherwise you'd spin up a lot, but the St box does help make a standard ish car faster with the close ratios.

More power you can run the diesel box

It's Yosser's old car I'm referring to...which is running more power than standard...just thinking out loud!
