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.
