If you can decifer and ignore some of the comments on volvospeed.com, repost over there. They have some very good people who can help and might have even done this with the P2 cars. I have seen threads where they swapped auto trannies to manuals and played around with different ECUs.
I don't know, but suspect that the engine wiring harness is compatable with the fuses in the engine compartment and the plugs on the passenger side of the firewall. The ECU is different between the turbo and the NA engines of course, but they can be interchanged in an emergency basis - performance results are marketly different but the engine will run.

This total swap would be very interesting. A feeler call to a GOOD Volvo mechanic would also be fruitful. None of us in the USA have diagrams of RHD cars, and turning the blueprints over probably wouldn't help that much. This "project" needs to be thought out.
Lots of luck.
