After the demise yesterday of the T4, looks like 480 may see some track action

As above, check out the Volvo 480 forum!!

If it where MY 480 turbo....I would do these here mods after fixing & checking all of the usual stuff:

Robou ECU
Audi/VAG dump valve x 2
Extra radiator (small one in one of the coolant lines from the oil cooler)
Colder plugs with smaller gaps

Should be enough for a pretty reliable 170 hp and 250 Nm, or at least that is the rumour I've just started

Good luck!

haha just now on this thread

No really, those are the numbers I noticed Robou posted up....

http://www.volvo480forum.com/index.p...85755#msg85755

Het enige dat ik kan zeggen is dat minimaal 175PK en 250NM aanwezig zijn.
