Would prefer some stock drag times for this model.
I was unable to find and real times for this car. (only 2005 2.5t AWD info)
looking of the 0 to 60, 1/8 & 1/4 mile times.


looking to upgrade it also just some mild up grades.



and as far as this model do anyone have any wins under the belts? is so what were you racing?


i think i have a lost to come. i have challenged a 2007 Charger R/t. He is going to give me the leave and maybe some cars.

you'll get eaten. the S80 is made for a steady type of speeding, like autobahn speeds. not the street racer type. you would need to mod the car for it to take the R/T. the 850 if done right would take him with the mods costing less than the mods on the S80. if you can catch him spinning his tires and you can load the turbo up, you might take him. not that i am condoning you to street race, but hey it happens :grin:

I don't have 0-60 specs but have 0-62mph specs (probably converted from 0-100kmh)

S80 2.5T
Manual 0-62mph: 7.3sec
Auto 0-62mph: 7.7sec

if you want fast you will have to go for the twin turbo
S80 T6: 7.2sec (auto) and a bit faster if you engaged the tiptronic.

Other 0-62mph specifications: Auto (Manual)
S80 2.0T: 9.8sec (9.1sec)
S80 2.4: 9.9sec (9.0sec)

Thanks for the times! I almost went for the t6 but wanted AWD. this is my first time With AWD and i like it! The t6s should have had AWD as an opt then i would have had it. i will probly trade the 2.5 in for a V8 volvo later on. but once a gain



Thanks

Is yours manual or auto? The problem with AWD cars is you cant floor them off the line, you have to ease it in or you may just end up cooking the clutch...
Ease it in and wait for those turbos to kick in...

Seriously though, if your looking to mod a volvo go for an older model.. its lighter, less computerised and cheaper to mod
