Default buying a S60 R?

Hey to all S60 drivers, I like my S90 but I'd like a car with a little more power(turbo), and still be able to be an every day driver. I know the S60 R has around 300 hp, but has anyone heard of any mods done to them? What are they capable of power wise? Just curious, might be getting one soon.
thanks.

If you would take a look at this thread here, https://volvoforums.com/m_38606/tm.htm
as well as this one, https://volvoforums.com/m_65537/tm.htm

Look for the companies/websites like...

EuroSportTuning (EST)
Viva Performance
IPD USA
EVOLVE

You can do a downpipe, catback system, intake, ECU upgrades. These are four basic mods for these cars and you will see the most power from the downpipe and ECU upgrades.

I would say you could possibly see 350-375 Hp possibly.

Man did you open a can of worms.You'll obviously find diff opinions on aftermarket companies, but I have been using Evolve and been very happy with them.

I suggest reading around here...
