I had the same issue on my 850, John.  We welded tiny dots along the v-band face (downpipe side) to help create higher pressure points and give it more grip.  On the s60, there are hangers at the rear of the subframe so it isnt' an issue anymore.

You should also contact Matt Farrah to see if he can shoot an episode of "Tuned" on the drive network to feature your car.

:lol: it's all about waiting for the fun to begin!!

I think that was the reason for my Southbend clutch(es) having so many clamping issues...wrong stack height. Either way; looks good John! Looking forward to videos but I'm really surprised that you smoked the clutch with the 707! Crazy torque or did you ride it too long?

Exactly what I was going to ask, Jeff ^^^

Seems like a lot of people overlook the crossover tube to the cooler. Sounds like a main bearing to me...just went through this on a customer's s60R.

Looks great John! You were using the P80 m56 or a P2 m56? Reason I ask...my m66 in the s60 rattles like a mofo after installing the quaife/bearings and running the Kalmar Union flywheel. Sorry for going off topic

This is just what I wanted to read on my day off of work. Very cool and something I can see catching on. That 2-1 manifold adapter style is also used on 24V VR6-turbo kits . Do you think it's a good idea to upgrade your turbo? Seems like you'll run out of steam pretty quickly with the volume you need to push through it.

I wonder why, after reading this whole thread, my hand smells like my penis.

:lol:

Shift bushing conversion looks good Ben!

Hussein, has it lessened the resistance during normal driving? ie: will my chances of finding 5th gear increase :lol:

Ohhohohohhhhh!!! How did the track go?

More boost Mark, duh.

Well, the wagon is properly fast now. I need new underpants. The video doesn't do any justice to how the car actually feels.

Hey I live in CT homie :P

Black C70 coupe with a mesh grill in Sandy Hook / Newtown, CT around 6pm. I was in my silver C70 coupe coming in the other direction

Bobby fo'sho! Didn't he come to replace your transmission, and you didn't recognize the car??

sonic blue s60r with an exhaust i tried to wave but he proceded to laugh...? albany ny on central ave... are s60r owners becoming bmw dbags?

With your mods you should have shown him the bidniss, and slowed down and laughed back at him.

They appear slightly higher, or is it just me? Do they hit the windshield alright still or do they overshoot at all?

Doesn't matter much once you're at speed.

Pegs, HIDs, chips, shelby hood scoops...this is Volvospeed

Among other things that were fixed was the level of badassness....AP racing clutch kit just turned it up to ELEVENNNNN

I was going to comment that maybe the wheel hop you felt was really clutch chatter under load? Hopefully the AP serves you well.

How is clutch engagement compared to the spec setup?

And it's just crazy to drop a subframe and all that when it's constantly raining out

Seriously...who does that! :lol:

I think I'm heading home from this road trip towards the end of the week, possibly coming home on Thursday? If I have Friday off I'll let you know :tup:

Holy clutch. That kit looks effin sweet Hussein! When do you plan on getting it installed? I'd like to check it out before you do.

Nice video, great sound track

Has the quaife eliminated most of the torque steer as well? Clutch feels good? Looks like it's time to find the next weakest link , you're overdue
