Default XC 60 Performance Chip

Hello,


I am looking at the a performance chip for my xc60 i wanted to see if anyone had upgraded the performance?
I was looking around and all look like they will mess with the codes and factory ecu not just work around everything but the performance. Do i need to up grade the pully as well? It is a 2015.5 Drive e. I know the T6 is the same engine with more performance how do i get 300 hp like the t6? I am at 250hp i think now. I had a VW and APR had a great chip that could be locked into place and the dealer could not tell it was chipped when it was taken in for service.


Thanks for your help.

stay away from a site that says they are selling a "chip" or connector for your ECU (I realize this is an old school term but wanted to clarify). These ECUs are all programmed via flash memory (which is why APR and other top vendors sells an uploader tool with their programs). Just google "volvo software tuning" and you'll get a list of vendors including RICA, IPD and others to check out. Note that with a soft loader tool you should be able to reinstall the OEM program as needed.
