These cars have the turbo integrated into the exhaust manifold. I have only seen one upgrade turbo.

It says it is for the C30 but it is the same engine.

Man that would be nice!!! I'm gonna hope it's covered by the warranty though. I just don't have an extra 3K to put in the car at this point. My wife's Saturn Vue has to go!! That thing is the biggest P.O.S. I have ever owned. The CVT trans has been replaced three times now and its about to go again.

Yah I agree somethnfrce up grade would be nice!! They quoted $1900.00 that's still a lot less than an upgrade ($32..k parts alone) and I'm guessing I would need a new intercooler also.
I'm going to fight the good fight with the dealer and see if I can get anywhere. I'll keep you guys up to speed as I hear things.

Yes, but sometimes the compliments redirect your attitude onto something else.... I would just skip the GM and call Volvo. How far out of warranty are you? I forget what year your S is?
