i had the MTE stage one software upgrade done on my Volvo 850 T5 by Don of Kalmar Union smile i only got a quick chance to let her loose as the run home was mostly wet but had a dry stretch of quiet country road near my house and yes it feels Very good indeed. good traction,smooth progressive power and very driveable

thankyou VERY much Don, a pleasure dealing with you cloud9

I'm thinking about going the MTE route.

Let me know your thoughts when you have done some more testing !

i can HONESTLY say this is the BEST £285 you can spend if you own a T5

i have driven it in good dry conditions and also on icy roads and the power is soooo smooth it's a real wolf in sheeps clothing now smile

it has totaly transformed the feel of the car, it really pulls like a train now

i'm loving this car all over again now cloud9

also fuel economy has improved by 5-8mpg over the same benchmark journeys, so that was a bonus i wasnt really expecting
