The S40's with the turbos are hella fast... Same with the S60R. My friend had a C70 and they are fast but heavy as shit...If volvo didn't have the turbos for their cars they would be the slowest cars ever.

if the twin j and the n/a TL have the same hp/tq, then N/A will always win. but that isnt the case here im pretty sure. im sure the j has way more hp than the TL.

I did some digging around out of curiosity... yea those S60Rs look insane.

I've always wanted an AWD

The cl was at 7lbs fast but not really, the tl is no longer stock by anymeans and is very nasty in my opinion... I wish I could post some pics of what it sounds like so you guy's can drool I don't post over in the special ed class LOL

Since i started MPP I thought about making parts for the tl's So we took the throttle body and went 70 mil with it made a TB spacer ,Manifold spacer a set of precat deletes with full 2.5" exhaust. Underdrive pulley Ported the intake and runner tubes to big as hell. Put a regulator on it and a AFM then started playin with the ethenol again and I had a set of cams made for it. Thats when all that stupid bolt on shit made a difference. I don't have any numbers cus the cams are one of a kind and we are puttin some miles on it to make sure that this is a reliable upgrade and to make sures all the parts we made are road worthy. Soon it will have the bottle on it.... This is a 2004 6spd tl
