The Elevate Volvo C30 Rear Roof Spoiler in carbon fiber or FRP fiberglass gives your C30 unique styling with the added benefit of increased aerodynamics. Our spoiler resembles the Volvo C30 DRIVe roof spoiler which was offered in only a few markets around the world to retain a "factory plus" appearance.

The shape of this spoiler is designed to get your C30 through the air cleanly rather than trying to achieve any sort of "downforce" at the rear of the vehicle. A spoiler that tries to introduce downforce creates drag, resulting in a decrease in fuel economy. C30's have moderate to heavy understeer, depending on what suspension you have. In terms of how aero or downforce would come into play to counter this and make your C30 handle better, you would want more downforce on the FRONT to increase front tire traction to decrease understeer. Added downforce at the rear would actually increase undesireable understeer.

Our spoiler is a direct replacement for the factory R-Design rear spoiler or C30's that were not originally equipped with a roof spoiler. We utilize an integrated LED lighting segment for the third brake light that is white and illuminates red The spoiler is a true plug and play design using a factory Volvo wiring harness, rear washer hose section, and rear washer nozzle.

Manufactured of strong FRP fiberglass with a primered finish--ready for you to prep and paint the color of your choice. Mounts easily in about thirty minutes with included double sided tape (same as the factory spoiler). The only tool required is a T25 torx driver. Mounting instructions are included.

The ELEVATE Volvo P3 T6 Dual Port Turbo Compressor Recirculating Valve (CRV or eCRV) is a bit of engineering and manufacturing brilliance that will help keep your turbocharger functioning at its full potential, making maximum boost--and let it be heard. Co-developed and manufactured exclusively for ELEVATE by long time development partner Turbosmart, our Dual Port CRV Blow Off Valve performs! Our robust solenoid and piston design is fast acting and designed to last. Our testing has found that the weak factory solenoid actually gets pushed open (unseated) as boost increases within the turbo compressor housing--actually acting as a bit of a torque limiter by limiting boost pressure. Our stout solenoid keeps the brass valve closed until the computer triggers the valve to open as the throttle is lifted to prevent the turbo from stalling.

The ELEVATE Dual Port design lets your turbo's voice be heard with its blow off valve sound and functionality. Around town with light throttle/low boost driving will not sound much different than stock. The reason being is that the valve piston only cracks open a bit when the throttle is lifted, redirecting all of the boosted air back into the turbo, just as the stock CRV does. However, when you have the throttle down/high boost and snap the throttle closed, the piston in the CRV opens more, directing some air back into the turbo and the remainder being vented to atmosphere through a vent window on the side of the valve, achieving the "whoosh" / "pshhh" sound enthusiasts appreciate. For those that want a stronger design than factory without any change in sound, ELEVATE offers a standard CRV.

Unlike other "upgraded" CRV components that retain the weak link (the factory solenoid), the ELEVATE solution is a complete replacement for the factory CRV including the solenoid and a piston valve assembly in one compact, direct replacement unit. Fits all variants of Volvo 3.0L T6 engines including Polestar models.

What is a Compressor Recirculation Valve (CRV)?
When your turbocharger is generating boost and you release the accelerator (closing the throttle), the boosted air essentially hits a wall (the closed throttle). The pressurized air must be redirected back into the intake of the turbo to prevent turbocharger damage (at the worst) or turbo lag (at the least). A Compressor Reciruculation Valve is activated by an electronic signal from the ECU. The CRV stays closed under boost conditions (directing all boosted air to the engine) or snaps opens when the computer directs it to, redirecting the boosted air within the compressor housing. The factory turbo system utilizes a CRV integrated into the turbocharger compressor housing which essentially closes and opens a port which can be seen in the images.
