For the 2011 model year Volvo introduced the brand new 2.0 D3 diesel engine with 163 hp and 400 Nm. RICA Engineering can proudly say to be the first to deliver ECM upgrades for these new D3 diesel engines.
With the RICA ECM upgrade the engine delivers 447 Nm of torque and 177 hp, which makes it the most powerful two litre Volvo diesel engine.
Volvo also introduced two different 2.4 litre D3 163 hp engines, one with 420 and one with 340 Nm. These engines are the same as the ones used in the earlier model years and can be tuned to either 245 or 240 hp depending on the model.

RICA Engineering are very proud to have been appointed as the official suppliers and scrutineers of ECM tuning software in the Dutch Touring Car Diesel Cup for the BMW and Volvo race diesel race cars in 2010.
Dutch Power Pack, the organisation responsible for the cup, wanted to level the playing field by ensuring that all the cars are tuned to the same level and that no teams had an unfair advantage through non-approved tuning modifications. A target lap time of approximately 2:05 seconds was required for all the cars and any cars which were significantly faster would have to be scrutinised. RICA Engineering have long been established as leaders in performance diesel tuning both on the road and on the race track as well as being equipped with precise dyno measuring equipment (Maha LPS 3000) and specialist ECU software analysis capability. Dutch Power Pack therefore considered RICA Engineering to be the best company to fulfil this new role. All the BMW (120d and 123d) and Volvo race cars have RICA performance software installed, tuned to ensure that no team has any performance advantage. RICA Engineering are also responsible for dyno testing and examining the ECU software in any cars which require post-race scrutineering on request of the race officials.
All the Touring Car Diesel Cup race events are held at Zandvoort and Assen in the Netherlands.

RICA Engineering have launched a performance ECM upgrade for the all new Alfa Romeo MiTo 1.4 Turbo with Multi Air technology.
The rather small turbo on the 1.4 Multi Air gives the engine 135 hp and 206 Nm in stock configuration.
With the RICA Performance upgrade the torque increases by almost a third up to 260 Nm and 145 hp!
With the extra 54 Nm of lower end torque you never have to shift down when overtaking!
