Yep - I've got a Black 2015 V70 T6 AWD Inscription that I imported from Japan - and absolutely love it. I think it may be one of the latest Vt70 T6's in the UK. It's stock 305 BHP, but am thinking about what I can do.
D5T5 have a engine re-map available, but I'm also wondering about what else could be done with it, bigger turbo, suspension etc. There are a few V60 T6' kicking around -wondering whether anyone could shed any light on next steps after re-map |

t6 v70
Hello,
It sounds like your car must be the very last T6 produced. My advice is to leave it as is - It is certainly a very powerful car , and as values are on the increase for this model you would be better retaining its originality. Any adaptations to the engine/ performance could reduce its value, and also cause a lot of technical issues later. I hope that this is gppd advice for you! Tony. |

I have been on the fence about this as well, have an XC60 T6 with the Polestar map, and so far there isnt really that much on these platforms apart from people doing the usual exhaust / intake remap steps and thats it. I think from what I have seen which has held me back, is that the gear boxes are the weak point on these? I have some auto geartronic thing, assuming you have as well? You should be able to find coilovers easy enough, but for bigger turbo im guessing you would have to pick and choose your own route really as there is nothing off the shelf for these. You will also probably need a custom mapper as well rather than the generic maps. Im still researching slowly but there isnt much content on this at the moment.
