    Can you guess what trans it is?

    Give you a hint, it is very familiar on this board. And a guy named Dave probably did the built trans for him.

    Rene bought the parts from Dave and had it rebuilt locally.

    Fixing the Geartronic is as easy as cutting and splicing two wires.

    I'm in limbo with mine at the moment. Thinking about more injector and boost, however also thinking about how much the 88K mile 4t-crappy hates me already.

    So are you one of the 5 S80 owners modding their cars?

    You say mod, I say replacing poorly designed factory parts with slightly less crappy ones.

    Nah, the Volvo is a lot slower than the Pontiac was for the last little bit.

    It's just a Volvo, and I don't know if I want to keep it.

    Euro just means you order from places with "euro" in the name and still feel just as ripped off.
