Volvo XC90 - 204bhp RICA Upgrade

Best Seller: Volvo D5 Euro IV 226bhp remap. The Volvo D5 Common-Rail Diesel engine is a superb unit capable of producing in excess of 460Nm. All ECU remaps are designed with performance and longevity as top priorities to ensure years of exciting but trouble free motoring. Initial hesitation on acceration is removed and 0-62mph time is reduced by 1.5-2 seconds aproximately (Volvo XC90 0-62mph times).

Once the software codes have been read from your vehicle's ECU, software engineers create software specific to your vehicle to maximise your power, torque and MPG. Your new custom software is then downloaded to your vehicle directly through the OBDII port - No hardware modifications are made and nothing is 'bolted' onto the car. You should allow 90 minutes for the process to be completed. Please scroll down to see figures. Volvo S60 - 210bhp RICA Upgrade
