I would not just caution you to stay away but flash technology is superior (and 100% safer) than soldering a chip which is what Upsolute will do to your ECU. Yes, they are cheaper but not worth the risk. Go to www.swedespeed.com and you will see a post by Carlos who upgraded his S40 through them. He likes the result but he had to go through hell for them to get the total performance straight and their customer service was nothing to write home about. He was very frustrated with his sales rep's poor customer service; do you want to have to chase someone when your car is down??? NOT!

REMEMBER THE RULE THAT USUALLY WORKS IN LIFE: "You get what you paid for"...
