Lightbulb Polestar Tune on the 2015 S60 T5 2L worth it?

Hey Fellow Volvo Lovers!

I have a 2015 S60 T5 Drive E with 26k miles on it.

I live in Dallas, TX. and am thinking about having the Polestar Tune Download installed at the tune of $1500.00

After looking at the stats on Polestar.com I noticed although one would go from 268 f/lbs of torque to 295, the horsepower remains the same and 0-60 goes from 6.3/sec to 6.2.

My question is do you think it would be worth the expense to gain torque only?
Do you really think it would be worth that much money for .1 seconds difference?
and...the exhaust upgrade...has anyone heard what it sounds like on the Drive E 2.0L engine? i.e. any louder?

Thank you in advance for your time, and response.

we have not performed one on the 2015's yet to report in yet. Sure seems like a lot of moola IMO for 27 foot-lbs ... but then again - you do get that cool badge for the trunk
