Default s80 new guy, have some questions

hey guys so this is my first post here i have just recently aquired a 1999 s80 t6 and have a few questions. i realize that the 99 was prone to issues and dont plan on doing much modding but i would at least like to add a tranny cooler since i have heard the stock tranny isnt that great haha, i have a b&m 70264 trans cooler on my camaro but was wondering what you guys would recommend for the volvo and also if there is a write up out there on how to do it on this car.

another question i have is, is it possible to do an atmospheric blow off valve on a car like this or not? i have heard that because it has a recirculating bov and that the air is metered that it will harm the car to switch over??

Hey there's some vids on youtube with 850's turbo with blow offs. so it seems you could do it with a t6. I'm gonna try one eventually

Idk. A trans cooler is likely not necessary.
