bigjoe25 Posted December 8, 2016 Report Share Posted December 8, 2016 I'm in the USA, that does seem to matter as no one on this side of the pond seems to tune these cars. Anyway I got a 2001 s40 1.9t for free, it's in great shape. Only thing is the stock output is kind of weak and I want to make it faster. I'm no stranger to volvos, I built a 300 horsepower redblock before. Anyway I've done some searching and I really cant find any performance upgrades for a 2001 s40. I was wondering what you guys do to make them go faster? I think 300 horsepower would be plenty, I don't need to go all out and go over 600 or anything too extreme.
