ive got a 01 s80 t6 and i want to do some upgrades to it. is there any tuning chips or ecu tunes i should look into?
anyone know a company that sells a bigger turbo kit? any advice helps too thanks

 

The reason no one offers performance upgrades for a t6 - is if you do make more HP and torque - all you will do is melt the transmission faster. (I had a 2004 xc90 t6 - the transmission failed @ 22k miles) And I replaced many for customers that failed for many years after that. .

Certainly I dreamed about XXX hp and XXX torque easily possible from the t6 twin turbo motor - unfortunately the GM transmission can't handle it! So I turned my T6 back in from it's lease. And forged new dreams.

 

is there any trans that can be swapped in (manual or auto) that would be able to handle the power of the engine?

 

The GM automatic was the only transmission Volvo offered worldwide for that engine. The is no Manual transmission shown in the parts catalog for that engine.

 

You can add for few HP with things like air intake modifications and other bolt ons but don't go crazy the transmission is not going to like it.
Or you could build an extra 50hp and buy a couple of used transmissions and replace the original when it fails,
