Default new member w/ an s80 t6

Hey guys,
My name is Ryen. I drive a 2001 volvo s80 t6 with 154,xxx miles on it and i purchased it a year ago this month. I love the car. The only problem i have with it is most of the parts are starting to break at this point. It didnt help that the previous owner beat the living hell out of it. The car looked like it hadnt been cleaned or vaccumed since it came from the factory. Anyway, since ive had the car i have replaced all the spark plugs, two coil packs, cleaned all the injectors and replaced the o-rings on them, and i have an ipd timing belt kit coming in the mail to be replaced next. Another issue i am having is that the two rear break lights dont work. But for some reason the brake light bar in the rear windshield works.

As far as "modifications" i have done to my car none of them really make the car faster just cosmetics basically. That being said, i have a custom exhaust that consist of a 2.5in straight pipe into a glasspack. It might not be the prettiest looking exhaust, but i must say that the sound is much more satisfying than a friend of mines 400$ magnaflow set up. Next, i bought a turbosmart blow off valve that doesnt do too much performance wise but i get a kick out of the blow off sound. And lastly i have a K&N cotton air filter that does a hell of a job. That is the basics of my car and im happy to be a new member of the forum, and cant wait to hear from some of yall and get to know your cars. And hopefully get help on some of these pesky problems.
