Roughness? LOL ! Ive had the poly upper mount on both my 850's and didnt notice any diff. as far as that goes.You must have bad motor mounts and some other mounts that are bad if you noticed any diff. from a poly upper mount.

Heck, I have been a Volvo guy since '87 and just found this site last year.
You dont mind paying $600 more for pretty much the same turboback?

O wait I forget the IPD one has a high flow cat.lol That makes it worth $600 more.Maybe it has gold dust inside the cat.

Come on guys, its a known fact that the polys transfer more vibration to the cab. Its not terrible, its just noticable.

Just to clarify. All my mounts have been replaced and the engine floats on a cloud.

I decided to not put the cat in for awhile just to play around with it. Much louder and to my surprise I am not throwing any codes. I welded the OEM O2 sensor bung in the pipe about where it was in the OEM, fit nicely.

I think water injection is next. Its just to hot here and when it cools off at night it becomes a whole new animal.

I agree, we need to back off of him. I was just giving my opinion, he gave a rebuttal, and I backed off.

Took it out for a spin this evening after it cooled off. Couldnt find anyone to give a taste of Volvo exhaust.

Boy what a difference. It just roars and pulls hard. I did not change my MBC and left it at 15psi. The turbo is jumping to 17psi and holding steady. Its got more, I can feel it. Wow its fun to drive.

White injectors, I have them...should I put them in?

If you have a tune for them, otherwise it won't make a difference. You won't really know if you need them or not until you put in a wideband to see what your AFR are at WOT. You may need them and you may not.

how big are the white injectors compared to the OEM? how many lbs?

i need to upgrade my injectors. im not sure where to begin. i know in my lsx, the ecm can figure the injector slope out as long as its not to extreme of a change.

White injectors are OEM. They're from S70 T5s. How do you know you need to upgrade your injectors? If you have the IPD Stage III tune and didn't specify what injectors you have, it will be tuned for oranges, therefore, adding whites won't make a difference. In order for injectors to make a difference, you have to have a tune specifically for them.

You should contact IPD and ask what your StageIII is tuned to. It might be white injectors already. If you go watch some of there videos on their V70 I think they mention its running Whites...dont quote me on that though.

IPD has info on water injection. I'd guess that you can get the setup cheaper than the grand or so that they want for it though. If you're serious about power, do methanol injection.
