Default Chip Tuning for S60 17'

Hi, i have a Volvo s60 2017 It is powered by T3 volvo engine (152 hp, 1500cc, 250Nm). I want to enhance my car with chip tuning .A company that makes this says we can improve it to 190hp and 320Nm. However, I'am not sure. May it cause some problems in future ? Does my turbocharger and engine block withstrand ? or does gearbox cause any problem ? is it logical ?

I’m sure they could do it, but 152 bhp on a 1500cc engine must be about on the limit, to me, increasing that small an engine to almost 200 bhp is asking for issues to arise, but I’m sure there will be someone on here better informed than me will tell you better...

Formula 1's manage to get nigh on 1000hp out of a 1600cc and rev to 15000!
Can't see Volvo taking up the mantle however
