Does anyone know if a VP D4-210i-A can be upgraded to 225 or 260 hp spec and, if so, what is required and what would be the approximate cost?
Many thanks,
Allan

I don't think it is available as a Volvo option, unless from a internal guy,
you could do it with one of these chip tuning boxes,

googling you might find others aswell.
over all the most easy and cheapest solution

Lots of bits are different: cylinder heads, turbo, ecu, etc.
260 has a supercharger as well.
The cost would be prohibitive - it's a non-starter, imho.

I presume you normally run @ 60-80% max revs ???
when you have spent £1250 on a chip box / new prop etc I presume you will still run on 60-80% max revs.
Why not save all the upgrade cost and just run on 100% max revs. now.
I'm confident your engine will not last as long which ever option you choose but you will have at least saved the modification cost.

Actually, I normally run at 85% max revs, (2900 rpm)........but what's that got to do with it?

If you run it at 100% it wont last long
If you modify it wont last long either, but will cost the mod.
