About this remap

Volvo C30 2.5 T5 226 bhp Stage 1 — what changes

The Volvo C30 2.5 T5 226 bhp (2007–2010) leaves the factory at 226 BHP and 320 Nm of torque. Manufacturers deliberately detune this engine to separate it from more expensive variants in the range — a Regal Tuning Stage 1 calibration safely recovers that headroom through the ECU alone: no hardware changes, no dyno risk, fully reversible.

Fuelling, boost pressure, ignition and torque limiters are optimised within the safe tolerances of the 2.5 T5 226 bhp powertrain (petrol). The result is 279 BHP and 454 Nm with factory smoothness, cold-start protection and emissions behaviour retained.
