Lexmaul Tune Volvo C30 T5

German tuner Lexmaul have turned their attention to the Volvo C30 T5, and have released an ECU upgrade and lowering kit.

The ECU upgrade increases the power of the 2.5-litre turbocharged 5-cylinder engine from 230bhp to 260bhp, and torque from 236lb.ft to around 295lb.ft. There’s no official word on performance figures, but you can be sure it’ll make the hottest C30 feel signifcantly quicker. The ECU upgrade costs 899 euros.

The lowering kit drops the C30 by up to 30mm, giving it a significantly better stance on the road and can be yours for just 175 euros.
