Thank you for taking time out to reply.

As I've never run a volvo turbo diesel automatic before, the running characteristics are different. I have an 03 vw tdi automatic, however that trans is electronic and not comparable.

Ive had a few older range rovers and am familiar with their shift patterns.

I will follow your guidance and report back. I will adjust the kick down to raise the shift points, this should keep it in boost longer.

I have a boost gauge t-d into the intake. from a standstill what should the boost be..... foot to floor ( throttle lever against max speed screw) accelerating thru shifts thru converter lockup to max road speed?

What boost number should the engine see flat out foot to floor (should it be 10psi).

TIA
