ipd Anti-Sway Bars

If you really enjoy driving your Volvo, but occasionally find yourself wishing it handled a little better, you should seriously consider having an ipd safety anti sway bar system installed. Our sway bar kits have been the number one top selling suspension upgrade for Volvos for over 25 years and if you spend a few minutes on the web you’ll see why. Volvo owners around the world consistently give ipd swaybar kits excellent reviews for enhanced performance and safety. Flatter cornering, quicker response to steering input, increased margin of safety and a much more comfortable ride for you and your passengers due to reduced body roll.

After speaking with Chris for a while on the phone answering all my specific questions about upgrading my 2001 S60 with IPD's Anti-Sway Bars, I was convinced. I also added the HD link rods. Wow!! What a difference. I'm ready to take this to the track. Corners taken at 20-25 mph can now be taken at 40+ mph. By far the most bang for the buck I've ever got from a suspension upgrade. I love the ride so much, I'm negotiating to buy a 2004 S60R AWD 6 speed to add to my fun. IPD customer for life."

6K5036 Reviewed by Kevin Woolliams from Surrey, BC"An upgrade that I should have done sooner. My V70 T5 feels smoother, safer, more stable and is definately more fun with these bars. Installed with HD endlinks, so some of the credit may go to them, but overall the combination of HD endlinks and anti-sway bars was well worth it."

ipd Softloader - 1999-2010 models

It is generally agreed by the Volvo performance community that our software tuning, co-developed with our Swedish tuning partners at MTE, is the best in the business. When it comes to power under the curve, there is no comparison. Our upgrades simply outperform the competition. A smooth, linear power delivery provides maximum torque within safe limits. Our direct flash tuning method had one drawback, it required our customers to send their ECU to us for upgrading, which put their car out of commission for 2-3 days and also added $150 to $200 in overnight shipping fees to the upgrade cost. We wanted to provide a solution that allowed our customers to experience the superior performance of our upgrade without the inconvenience and additional cost of sending their ECU to us. So began the quest to develop the solution that we are ready to release for sale.

The basic details are as follows:

• Our Softloader hardware allows you to flash our software upgrades directly into your car using the OBD II diagnostic port for access in about 10-15 minutes.
• Requires a USB equipped laptop or PC running Windows 98 to XP (not yet Vista ready). The Softloader upgrade comes supplied with cables that connect with a USB adapter on one end and OBD II on the other.
• The hardware can be used on multiple cars, so you¹ll only need to purchase the software to upgrade another car after the initial purchase.
• The first step of the upgrade process is to use the software and hardware to read the details from your car and then forward those files to us so we can provide you with calibrations developed specifically for your car.

Once we receive data from your car, we can usually provide 3-4 day turn around on the creation of the performance calibrations specific to your model, and return these back to you via e-mail to be loaded into your Volvo¹s ECU. We could bypass this step and provide a more generic tune for the base engine family, but our testing has proven that our wide scope calibration method provides the ultimate in long-term, trouble free performance. We have also developed fully functional scan tool software that allows you to read and reset check engine codes as well as providing access to other diagnostic information from the ABS system, the climate control system, safety systems etc. We also developed data logging software that allows you to select from multiple OBD II monitored inputs and enhanced outputs such as boost, intake charge temp, ignition angle, knock sensor activity, etc that standard OBD scanners can not access. These inputs can be displayed in real time or recorded to a file for later playback.
