Yeah, I know the performance options on N/A is pretty limited so that's why I was looking for suggestions from the "board".

To be honest, I'm simply a little disappointed in the acceleration of this wagon. My 93 is peppier and quicker. It is probably the weight difference between the 93 sedan and 95 wagon.

I've been searching for a good 97 GLT wagon or 98 V70 GLT for quite sometime without success. So I'll probably settle for this N/A wagon as it is the nicest 850 I've found to replace my very fun 93 sedan.

Regarding maintenance, you are preaching to the choir :)
I've owned my 240 for over 9 years and the 850 for 3 years. To my benefit, I found the "board" shortly after buying my 240 and have found it to be a tremendous resource. It is one of the main reasons I've made it to 300k in my 240!!
