Power Increase S70

posted by  someone claiming to be Frank on  Fri Apr 11 09:11 CST 2003 [RELATED]

About a year ago I installed an ipd ECU into my 1999 GLT. I have been very happy with the change, with the exception that it might have taken away a mile or two per gallon. I have not upgraded to the high flow exhaust quite yet, but plan to do so in the future. I was wondering if there were any other modifications, without messing with the wastegate to add some power to the car. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to add either more low end torque or upper end horsepower without sacrificing the longevity of the engine? Also, does any one have any numbers of what kind of power the car is running at right now with the improved ECU? Thanks in advance to all responses.

Frank
