Whilst the OP didn't claim 500bhp, Poeta's post shows the D5 block and crank is capable of way over that.
The new GR Yaris 3 banger has already been pushed to 500whp, stock unopened block. Anything is possible, if you've got the cash. 30 yEaRs DeVeLoPiNg, BuIlDiNg AnD tEsTiNg F1 PoWeR uNiTs means bugger all.

I think I will build such D5 engine next year it would a lot cheaper than sleeving my st one and I don't have a ton of money to spend and I really like an idea of something I can build myself cheaper to make more power 😁

What do you think a sensible level of tuning uplift is sensible for general street use ? Do you do them or know of good Volvo tuners in the Staffordshire area? |

The box is only rated to 450NM, so Polestar would be a sensible point to stop.
And very nice Polestar is too.
