Any T6 owners on here?

[junior 7178]

I've just bought a 2012 V70 T6 with Polestar Optimisation. Its the 304bhp standard and 329bhp with Polestar, so it's got the more reliable and stronger auto box than the 285bhp T6's.

Are there any other T6 owners on here? There doesn't seem to bea great deal out there about these engines with the focus of performance volvo groups naturally being on T5's and R model cars.

With the car already having the Polestar map, theres not much plug in stuff i can do now to improve the car. Snabb seems to do a few bolt on upgrades, but again all the info out there on these upgrades seem to be from the states.

So whos got one and what have you done to it?

I've just bought a 2012 Ex Police V70 T6. Like you I have found most of the focus is on the T5. It is hard to find accurate information but rumour is the Police ones are remapped from the factory amongst other upgrades.

None of the police special vehicles have left the factory with non standard maps .

Just got a 2019 V60 T6 (316bhp). Quite happy at the moment but time will tell. I am coming from a BMW and a Merc so quite different approach.
I like to try different cars and different brands so looking forward to a few years of Volvo.

I will be looking at the polestar upgrade if it comes cheap at some point.

Just picked up a 2012 S60 T6 R-Design with P* tune, love it. Will be tweaking over the next year.

Never saw this thread.

Yes got 2016 XC60 T6 Polestar, had it for about half a year now and still absolutely loving it. Very astonished at how silent and smooth that 3ltr engine is!

Im over in the Uk and have a T6 Ive just had some intercoolers made for them as I couldnt find what I wanted. Ive fitted a D088 intercooler hose kit and a Snabb Intake kit. Also put on a IPD down pipe with sport cat.

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
