Performance Chips???
I was looking on ebay for a fender for an 850. While I was looking, I saw some performance chips. I dont think that it had to be a turbo to use them, but I'm not for sure. My question is, are they worth the money and time? Do they actually give that much more HP?
Thanks |
RE: Performance Chips???
Hey Jackson, Here isa list of what you cando for your N/A 850.
ORIGINAL: S70driver I will tell you know NA's have basically no performance mods on the market for them. Also getting then anywhere near what turbocharged Volvo is will take a lot and I mean a lot of money. You have some options. 1. 2.25" catback system with a Flowmaster style muffler. Meaning a muffler with baffles in it. NA's like back pressure and you wont get that with lets say a Magnaflow muffler, which is a straight through design muffler. So you want back pressure so go with a muffler that has baffles. Also go no more then 2.5" piping for the catback system. 2. Custom CAI and or just put a K&N panel filter in your stock airbox. The OEM setup is very effiecent. 3. QBM's (QuickBrickMotorSports) Cam Timing Wheel. This will let you play with the Cam settings. 4. ECU upgrade. This will not net you anywhere near 30 Hp. Not even 20 Hp. 10-15 Hp at the most. |
RE: Performance Chips???
1. Are you turbo or N/A. By what your saying it seems like your N/A.
2. EBAY chips, FAKE/WONT WORK. DO NOT BUY THEM. 3. Volvo ECU tuning companies... IPD USA, RICA, BSR PPC, Upsolute, SpeedTuning USA, Inmotion. Now IPD USA, RICA and BSR PPC I know don't have ECU upgrades for N/A Volvo's. Upsolute may have a tune as well as Inmotion. SpeedTuning USA, I don't have any idea if they do or not. 4. If you do find an ECU upgrade for your Volvo, that is a real ECU tune not an EBAY tune your not looking at gaining much if any power. It wouldn't be worth it. |
RE: Performance Chips???
Stick to exterior/interior and suspension upgrades.
