Costa,

I have no personal experience with an upgraded GLT but I have driven a 1998 V70AWD with the upgrade. The result is very noticeable and I think in the FWD car you will notice even more. It will not be an "R" (totally different feel) but it will be as quick or even quicker than an 850 Turbo.

I think it is worth every single penny as the car is more enjoybale to drive not only under acceleration but during "normal" driving.

If you can afford to, GET IT!
