Well, JS is right, almost assuredly. But you know you find the darndest things with enough hunting and EVERYTHING comes through the pick and pulls. And IPD makes the aftermarket VX3, as well as the Volvo original that may have been installed. But a VX equipped car would be hard to find if it were not for the (probable) big fat sway bars, extra instrumentation, and probably the variable advance cam gear and other upgrades. In other words, you have to look for an obvious enthusiasts car to have a shot at one. No I have not found one though I traded for one. I have found the K cams but those are easy since the donor cars (factory equipped) are equipped with turbo-like gauges but with ambient temp gauge instead of the turbo pressure gauge. So yes, it is practically unlikely, but the holy Volvo grail keeps calling.
