Making an XC70 Faster
For very little time and money you can do a Stage 0 and $25 Ram Air Intake.
That would put you in a nice place maintenance-wise for any future upgrades like
- ECU chip (discussion on that ECU post found here)
- exhaust (discussion on that Exhaust post found here)
- manual boost controller
- wastegate turns
…
I agree about the 2.4 turbo is not as strong as the 2.3 when it comes to rods. I would go no bigger then a 15G get the ecu tuned set your cam timing, and a turbo back exhaust like OBX one. that could get you around 240hp, 250- 260tq at the crank.
