S60R built motor??

after months of research I’ve narrowed it down to three options 1) buying a 4t3/9 and swapping the r oil pan and head and calling it a day 2) the same as option 1 but swapping in the crank and rods from the 4t4 for the 93.5 mm stroke 3) or throwing k1 forged conrods wiesco forged pistons and the 4t4 crank for a built 4t3/9 with the better 93.5 mm stroke. If you guys could let me know what ballpark hp/tq numbers i could make reliably with each setup that would also be great

I think that with any of those options you can get to 500whp with stock intake/exhaust manifolds. I would go the forged rods and pistons route personally just for added insurance.

Doesn't re-volvo sell an R exhaust manifold with a T3 flange? And also doesn't Milletech make high-performance
intake and exhaust manifolds?

I'm sure they do, my point is that for 500whp you don't need an equal length exhaust manifold. That level of power can be reached with a stock manifold or a Japanifold. It may definitely require modification if the flange depending on your turbo. Mine are vband flanges welded to the manifold flange.
