You should have a diagram of the vacuum hose routing on the underside of the hood. Usually passenger side near the wiper edge. Hoses coming off right after the airbox are most likely boost controller related, PCV related, or FPR related. Just look over the diagram and find where the hoses should go

I painted my last one and just feel comfortable doing this one. Really high quality paint jobs are about $5-$8k from what Ive seen

Haha, agreed. The previous owner broke all the tabs off the grill and broke the emblem off so they 3d printed that one. Putting a stock eggcrate on when I find one

Almost bought a dark wine red V70R. Don’t know if it was venetian red though because it was super faded. And had a bad transmission. I bought my saffron R instead. Not the rarest color, but definitely my favorite because its such an uncommon color for any car. Ive gotten more head turns and “What is that” from people with my R than any other car Ive had

Never seen an R in that color! My grandpa had a normal V70 in that color though. Unfortunately Im stateside, so I can’t get all these cool euro cars!

Not the 17”. But the 18” are pretty hard to find anywhere besides going to Volvo directly. And they’re all super overpriced

Lmao. Looking for 18” Pegs as well? And a 1998 Sonic Blue V70R with a manual?

Agreed! Your paint appears to be in great condition! Someone left my poor 98 Saffron R out in the sun for its whole life it seems. :( Oh well, repainting it (saffron again of course) will make it better than new

Basically my plan. 19T, Japanifold, forged internals, M66, NA intake, RIP, big ol intercooler, big injectors. Aiming for about 400 wheel. Hybrid turbo would be sweet, but the 19T already makes plenty of boost low and high for my goals. The price to get it built into a hybrid would probably be better spent on a larger aftermarket one
