purely hypothetical S90-V90

Alright, so I'm bored and thinking about what engine swaps would be fun in volvos (see listing under the same headline in 122 forum). What's the feasibility of dropping a T6 engine in my V90? I'm guessing there would need to be a computer swap, and everything off the back of my stock engine (everything attached to the crankshaft) would have to be moved over to the T6 motor to make it play with the transmission. After that, it's probably fuel pump, custom exhaust (after the turbo), better intake setup, and what else? Does the transmission have its own separate computer? That could be a stumbling block.

Ideas? I've seen a guy on turbobricks.com who did this with an S60, but he went whole hog (exhaust, performance mods, etc) and obviously knew what he was doing. I'm just wondering if there's a relatively easy way to add an extra 90+ hp to my wagon when the day comes that its engine dies.
