Hey DK,

The subject began with a question about lighting up AWDs, but your reply opened it up to other models. When that happened, I couldn't resist a reply.

With the IPD Motronic+ ECU upgrade and the sport muffler, I took my FWD 98 V70 T5(M) from the stock 236HP to 285HP. You bet I can light 'em up in 1st and 2nd and maybe 3rd, if I ever tried it. The thing is that I am already into the 60s when I tach out in 2nd, so spinning 'em in 3rd at 60 would just be showing off, doncha think?
