I have a 2000 S70 LPT with the IPD ECU and Exhaust. I'm extremely happy with it. It is a nice amount of power. I'm not sure how much more power could even be put to the ground effectively. I've been running this for 2 years/12,000 miles without problem. If you look at IPD's published performance numbers, this should have no problem outrunning a stock HPT and a chipped HPT is only slightly faster to 60 due to trouble putting the power to the ground.

When I bought my car new in 2000, there were plenty of LPTs available (in GLT SE form), but the HPTs were few and far between. In fact, I was only able to locate one at the time and the price was $6K more than the LPT. That's why I took this route.

To be honest, had an HPT been available at the right price, I would for sure have gone for it. And I would have IPDed that one too!
