Hi Duane,

As Wobbly mentioned I've been the proud owner of a 2009 C70 2.0D for the last year. Its a FANTASTIC car quiet, comfortable, economical and a good looking. Obviously it is tuned and it...

Hi Matt,

The sole function of water injection is avoiding detonation and you will not be getting any detonation as the ECM reacts to the high intake temperatures caused by the limitations of the...

It's a Grey Estate not a Silver C70 !:bounce:

Jeeez it's quick. :B_censore HLM300 ??

I know a company that will do something better to your own unit (16T or 19T) for half that price !!:parhmph:

Hamish.

Frank,

Leave the 19T as it is and sell it for good money. Use a 16T if you want to Hybridise as the external dimensions of the 16T is identical to the 19T and a 16T can be sourced for buttons....

Shut up Wobbly before I vinyl wrap your head:smileypul

Hi,


I am now the proud owner of a S70R Manual in a rather striking shade of Metallic Orange ! Natalie is suitably unimpressed, Marcus thinks it's cool and I can't believe I've bought a Old Gold...

It does FACT.

Hi Kev,

It's normal. The noise is just more pronouced now that the car is tuned and you are not the first person to comment on it.

Give me a call at work I have a bit of experience of these remaps. Having sold more of these than anybody else (Rica included) !!

Boost is raised to 1.1 bar
Speed Limiter is effectively removed....

Hi,

A couple of years ago we mapped a 2.5T C70 with a 19T Turbo. The results were really good I will have to check my notes but it was producing similar power to a T5 with a 19T.

Also it might...

Only if he posts a link to a youtube clip of his T4 accelerating away from your S40 T5 on the A74M !!

Yes. The 16T and 15g are so similar in size I would consider them to be interchangeable.

Hamish.

Dubious upgrades......your car doesn't have a dubious turbo convertion.

Handbags at dawn.... I have to answer the phone and talk to these dreamers, tyre kickers, shakers makers and time wasters...

I'm struggling to read this through the tears of laughter....did you have a paddle clutch on a £900 Nissan Bluebird or did you spend £900 on a paddle clutch and lightened flywheel for a Nissan...

Hi,

The later 2.4 T5 tune really well and with a decent remap you should see more out of a 2.4 T5 than you get out of most S60R's ! We have been working with Autotech Motorsport Sweden for the...

Hi,

Why Rica ?
Does it have to be Rica?
We can remap your T5 with a tune by Autotech Motorsport Sweden for £350 (as a VPCUK member) this will include a Dyno Run and Diagnostic Check before and...

Neil,

It was old age that caused the head gasket to fail. More precisely the old thermostat stopping shut. Sadly these old girls have been high maintenance for a while now.
LPG isn't my favourite...

LOL.

If you fitted Alcohol Injection it could be really fun / dangerous !!

So you are swopping the Volvo for a ****roen ? The phrase "Out of the frying pan and into the fire" springs to mind ! Oh well good luck with your motoring.

Gaz,

This isn't your writing. You seem to have "gained" a lot of knowledge in the last 24 hours.

Giles,

Why don't you use the bathroom scales ? 1) weigh yourself. 2) weigh yourself while holding cat. 3) 2)-1)=Cat. Easy.

Hi,

In the last 2 years we have tuned nearly 2000 cars with Autotech. Wobbly is one of those Lance isn't. I have tuned a fair few R's in recent years.

Hamish.

P.S. Pedro I think you...

The split liners on STs will have all been caused by poor mapping and crazy boost. Autotech's remap will not give you boost spikes.

That's good to know that Volvo are confident it will cope with...
