I have an 02 S80 T6 geartronic and am getting rather bored with its performance.

What can be done (within a reasonable price range say 3k) to make it more exciting to drive?

Thanks

Rich

If you check my website www.kalmar-union.com you will see that I can supply ECU software upgrades, special downpipes and cat backs, plus all S60/V70P2 suspension and brake components and upgrades will fit the S80.

Regards, Don.

I'd be tempted to avoid that particular company like the plague.

The only stuff they "Really" know is how to con their customers.

Shocking Customer Service and shocking tuning.

Basic Summary.
Spend 3.5k on an upgrade, 3 hours later it goes bang, get told to Eff' Off by tuner!

There's no point anymore.

RICA have withdrawn their distributorship from those guys, who are actually known as Chip Tuning Ltd

The breaking news can be found here.
