Volvo C30 / S40 / V50 / C70 T5 Mantis Performance Ignition Coils

Restore a strong, consistent spark on your Volvo P1 T5 with the Mantis MTP-1009 high-output ignition coil. Built for the 2.5-litre five-cylinder turbo (B5254T3 / B5254T7) in the C30, S40 Mk2, V50 and C70 Mk2 T5, it is a direct plug-and-play replacement that delivers around 12% more spark energy than a typical OE ferrite coil.

The same five-cylinder family also covers the V40 Mk2 (T4 2.0 five-cylinder and 2.5T), S60 / V60 T5 models that use the 2.5 five-pot rather than the later Drive-E 2.0 four-cylinder T5, the S80 and V70 P3 T5, and the P2 S60 R / V70 R and S60 2.0T. These engines share the architecture with the Ford Focus ST225 and Focus RS Mk2, so the MTP-1009 covers those cars too. On aged five-cylinder T5s, tired coils are a common cause of cold misfires, rough idle and boost break-up — swapping to a stronger coil is one of the simplest reliability upgrades you can make.

Each Mantis coil uses a neodymium magnetic core with high-output copper windings for a bigger flame kernel and cleaner combustion under boost, stock or tuned. Fitment is OE plug and play: no coding, no harness changes. Five coils are required per engine; choose a single coil or a set of five below.
