855 T5 Love chips!

[Ryno]

Just bought myself a lovely 855 t5 manual, which has bought a smile to my face every time I drive it!!... I have got the cambelt done straight away, better to be safe than sorry. Just wandering now what type of ECU upgrade/chip to get that will help with fuel but obviously give me substantial power gains?

Loads of places out there,just do your home work first on the different companys,i would also do a service on the car before uping the power.

I've got a 280bhp rica chip in mine and it works really well - think it's slightly more drivable than the 308bhp chips - I have no idea what the power output is but all I know is that it comfortably out accelerates my mate's Audi s3 which has been chipped and rolling roaded at 260bhp

MTE without a doubt. Couple of forums out there for you.

t5d5.org is one, which i've found very good and where lots of the 'quicker' Volvo owners hang out

MTE is the one to go for, My 855 T5 has been MTE'd for 2.5 years now

my new D5 will also be done, ASAP
