So after reading these last few posts I guess this fancy suspension isn't all that impressive is it? Shame cause I liked the S60 R ...

Re: S60r
how many psi is the wastegate set at? how much could the engine take? im sure jsut a boost controller would defiantely improve performance right? is the suspension all that bad? is it jsut a computer glitch thats messing with it?

Its not S60 R, but it is damn fast volvo. He is spinning tires in the 3rd gear, the car is a true sleeper. I can imagine the expressions of some V8 owners when they get their butt handed to them by the 'safe' volvo.

Re: S60r
The R car (S60 and V70) both run a small turbo only pushing about 5-7lbs of boost at WOT. It is a easy car to get more power out of IF you have the right equiptment handy. As for the suspension problems everyone has had, it is normal for a sports suspension to make noise, hell you should hear my 300ZX its suspension makes more noise than a box full of tree frogs. But my suspension is a bit high strung. Honestly I find most peoples problems with the R cars suspension is the fact they leave it in one position for extended periods of time, like months, and never ever change it becuase they want a SOFT ride. The R car wasnt meant to be a grociery get'r but a performance car, with some luxery bits. The R cars only major problem from my POV is that it IS heavy and it is aimed at the WRONG demigraphic. Its aimed at the middle aged, older, established driver. For 35+k its a bit pricey for what you get but it doesnt take much to make it what you want.

Re: S60r
I just bought a 04 S60R and I have to say I love it. It isnt a ricer and if that is what you expecting then your out. I test drove a S4 before I bought this, they both were about the same price give or take. The S4 was faster on the straight away, but the Volvo had no body roll at 65mph in a S-turn. The volvo is loaded with alot of features that the S4 doesnt have. My buddy has a WRX modded, up pipe, down pipe, exhaust. I blew him away with out a problem. I will be purchasing a ECU upgrade kit, then go straight to up, down pipes, exhaust. Then if I dont have enough power then here I come HKS.

Re: S60r
Yes I am experiencing problems with the computerized active suspension, very loud thump noise at the rear of the car when going over a moderate bump and at moderate speed, Volvo does not seem to be able to get a fix on this?????.
