When I contacted Volvo about my ex Hampshire 850 T5, they gave the following:
"In answer to your question the Volvo Police Specification has no engine modification. Our Police Spec cars are built within our Special Vehicles factory where they receive an upgraded chassis - stiffer shock absorbers, thicker anti-roll bars, solid bushing for example. We also as you correctly point out upgrade the brakes offering the largest possible and add a wiring loom to facilitate the fitting of Blue Light equipment."
I've never had the chance to try another none plod 850 T5 but I really don't need more than the 225bhp indicated. It does its job very well
