Default 2001 V70 T5 turbo issue

Hi all-

First time poster, but long time lurker. I recently had to have the transmission replaced in my 2001 v70 t5, and since I got it back, it seems like the turbo is not kicking in. Before when I would stand on the accelerator, it would take off, and was a joy to drive. Now though, when I stand on it, it takes FOREVER to get going (ie. took 11 seconds to go from 0-60, and there is no "jump" when you stand on it at highway speed). Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Did they download software to the new tranny.
Thats where i'd start.
Was the tranny installed by Volvo or a transmission shop?
If performed by the tranny shop, most likley software was not downloaded.
Only Volvo have the software to do it.
I don't think you have a turbo issue at all
i think it's software related.
keep us posted.

goodluck
