Hi all.
New to this forum after having browsed for a while, I am hopeful someone may be able to help..

I have a V60 R design D5 manual 2013, recently bought second hand, and I'd like to know what upgrade or improvement members think would be best to undertake next.

I'm led to believe this now has 230 bhp and 470NM with the polestar upgrade, which has iimproved it's performance off the line.

A little more instant response to in gear acceleration would be good, as would slightly more torque, but I'm probably being greedy!

Bearing in mind I'm not mechanically minded, and don't want to affect the warranty (or insurance if I can help it)

Thoughts on an exhaust upgrade? -would this improve power or torque, or just make a nicer sound? Ditto air filters? Although I've heard mixed reports about their effectiveness over standard issue Volvo units..

Thanks in anticipation!
