Hey guys, nice to be here. Like the topic says im thinking about future transmission swap in my T6. I know that those USA gearboxes are weakest link of the car and I am preparing for future problems. Now nearing 300k km. I know that T6 never came with manual transmission, but the 2.9 model came with manual. I can buy crashed S80 with 2.9 and manual gearbox pretty cheap.
So what do I need to know about conversion??
Will it bolt on? It should because 2.9 and T6 are same engines only diference is the turbo or lack of it?
ECU - Have to trick ECU into thinking that gearbox is up and running or do custom tune? Talked to RSR from slovenia but no luck
Clutch pedal install should go no problem
And shifter should be no problem to install
So main problems are ECU and will it bolt on or am I missing something?
Pleading community for help and sorry for bad english
Best regards from Croatia!
