166kW and peak torque of 320Nm from 1600rpm plus the fact that my old man can get hold of the turbo from the Volvo S60R, lots of volvo connections. The standard intercooler can easily handle the heat from the larger, but far more efficient S60R Turbo and its a straight swap for the smaller XR5 unit which is sourced from a S40 T5. Should upgrade power to approx 205kW. Have any of you seen the Top Gear episode featuring this car? The thing handles incredibly, despite the fact that it's FWD. At $35990 minus a fleet discount, it was also great value for money. I guess I know Volvo's engines and their potential. My first car was a 1986 Volvo 360GLT. The car looked like crap but with rear wheel drive, a 2L fuel injected 4cyl and a rear mounted transaxle gearbox it was perfectly balanced & lots of fun to drive. This thing could keep up with late 90's model rollas & pulsars etc. You could even bolt on the turbo & intercooler from the larger volvo's at the time with no dramas. Volvo engines are rock solid. Don't worry, I'll still have the Stivo, the XR5 is a replacement for my company car. I could never part with the NA little warrior!!!! (Intake sound with CAI does it for me every time). damn, now i know u're the man when i ever get round to getting a T5. the heico and the evolve s40T5 are just insane.... Have you heard the burble these T5 engines make at idle? Sounds awesome. Put your foot down and the noise is very similiar to a V10. I know what you mean about the Heico & Evolve. Toyota engines are great, but my old man and I rebuilt the 360's engine after 350,000kms, what we thought would have to be pretty major was just a new set of piston rings and a timing belt. My old man wasn't suprised, he's been working on these things for years. Why not consider the XR5 Shao? Same chassis, engine and suspension as the S40T5, $25,000 less. No AWD though. Sorry all, getting a bit excited about the new car. Forgot that this was the TOCOZ........ STIVO's ROCK
