Hey folks... anyone know of a Volvo (specifically T5's) enthusiasts forums? Mate of mine wants to know what he can do to his car

Cheers...

The most performance-oriented one is Volvo Spy which has forums for each type of Volvo. There's also the UK Volvo Owners Club forum which has a "Performance" section, get there here.

The T5s respond very well to a simple bleed valve. Don Norchi at Kalmar Union (click) does one which has a bleed orifice matched to the boost control system, so even if you wind it out all the way you won't get a fuel cut.

Further up the scale you can get exhausts, remaps etc if you want to go to 300bhp and above. Kalmar Union (London) and TME do these.

Cheers, Craig (used to have a T4)

Yeah, the tyres dont respond quite as well !

Had a T5 for four years, great car.

Thanks, guys. I forwarded those details to my mate Chris. Unfortunately his wife saw the e-mail and I think he's had to re-prioritise his modding plans. Cheers anyway!
