You should separate swaps out a bit for your list:

1. 850 Turbos

2. V70 AWD (those who kept and those who ditched the AWD system)

3. P2s (i.e. Justin)
B Mac: "Guess what? Remember my new heater core?"
Me: "Yea."
B Mac: "It smells like dead rat again."

98 V70 AWD Manual: Wothrlined ECU, angled 15G turbo, White injectors, EST Intake, R Manifold, TME Downpipe, TME Exhaust, IPD Swaybars + HD endlinks, Volvo Strut Brace, Öhlins Roadholding Suspension + Springs, 302mm Front Rotors and Vented R Rears, SS Brake lines, E-spec C70 Jewels.
