Custom tuning???

**MarkT5** · Friday 30th November 2012, 23:18

Hello, I have a 2007 Volvo c30 T5 at 220bhp, I'm looking for a remap for it to take it to 260bhp and quite like AET at Wakefield but was wondering about a rica or polestar remap as these are what volvo use or used to use. So will work with Volvo and not cause any harm. I've seen this tuning company called custom tuning in Bradford and was wondering if anyone knows about them and if they are good or bad? Also if people have a good experience and no issues with there remap then please state who it is. I'm in Sheffield but don't mind traveling to get a good one.
Cheers
Mark

Go to a Volvo mapping specialist mate

Will go better if you visit HLM - that engine with just a few minor tweeks will see 300. Just ask Lance!!

I think I'll end up having a polestar remap as they are the ones used on the new motors so must be all tested and I'd rather be safe than sorry with abit more horse power.

On proper remaps company's spend thousands mate and making sure the maps are good and don't cause problems mate .autotech are big in Sweden so they must be good aswell as rica/ mte and polestar

Ye, I fancy a rica one as they are same a polestar but not sure where to get one from as I don't want to have it done at a back street garage and them put the software in. I also want it on the dyno so I know its working properly. Don't want to pay for something if its only going to do 240 when it should be 250 plus.
