D5 remap recommendation
Do you guys know any reputable place where I could remap my D5 215. I would love to get it dynoed before and after so I know the condition of the engine and final results are transparent.
I've spoken to superchips in buckingham and celtic tuning as well as Snows volvo for polestar map. Obviously polestar gains are smaller but you kind of get peace of mind guaranteed by volvo dealership (£525 quoted and no dyno runs), Superchips, Bucingham (quoted me £339 + £120 for 2 dyno runs) and stated they do not dyno car unless specifically requested which is a bit of a concern to be fair. Celtic tuning, so far is at the top of my list (£300 quoted inclusive of 2 dyno runs) Apart from polestar optimisation superchips and celtic tuning offer similar gains (+35-40bhp + 60-70nm) Does anyone have any experience with volvo and celtic tuning map? I spoke to them on the phone and they seems like a knowledgeable bunch. They dont push for top figures and offer dyno runs that can help spot potential threats before modifying ecu. |

Shem Green at Shemtech in Nottinghamshire did mine. I posted this question on the Volvo Tuning Facebook group (before it vanished) and nearly every reply pointed me towards Shem. I've had the map 18 months now and am well happy with it.

No the faults have not been corrected despite back and forth on FB messenger.
Don't get me wrong the PERFORMANCE of the remap was bang on. Just executed in a poor manner. I suspect but cannot prove as I'm not a remapper that the cruise was broken due to a manual car remap applied to an auto car. (showed clutch error) as soon as re flash to original map no problem. So I'm down the cost of his map plus getting another remap done by nick Lawrence
