Who sells a chip that WORKS for the 960/S/V90's ??

How to go faster, stop quicker, and turn harder. Chips, exhaust, larger turbos, bigger/slotted/drilled rotors, high performance brake pads, manual boost controllers, performance shocks/struts/springs, airbox mods and more! Also discussion on HID and Xenon lights, aftermarket foglights and other exterior lighting.

Who sells a chip that WORKS for the 960/S/V90's ??

Post by RCR »

So far I have freed the exhaust up (Magnaflow mufflers and soon the high flow cat up system) opened up the airbox so it will breath, running all synthetic fluids. the next step is a chip/flash program but who has one that WORKS for these cars??
Drove a 01 and 05 2.4 turbo V70 over the last few days but surprisingly while both had a lot less miles than my V90 neither pulled as stout or felt tight as my current V90. I like the look big time of the gen II V70 but the build quality just doesn't seem as good the interior materials sub par the handling no better and I have as much in straight line performance in the V90 as of now as the low pressure turbos do. On top of that with the rear drive and the 6 you can actually work under the hood and REACH STUFF!
Can ANYBODY here tell me who does chips for the NA 6 powered cars that WORK?? She has so far responded well to what I have done using the old normal hot rod tricks of making it breath and is now stouter that a stock B230 FT powered 940 with more bottom and no turbo lag. However I know there is more HP and MPG in this one to be gained with a good program.

Why?
This is not normally a car/engine that anyone mods and now that it's heading to be 14 years old.......

Check out this thread, but you can't say this is not a radical workover:

Say why don't you get some dyno time to see what you've achieved already?

http://www.sambilmode.se/ these guys sell a bunch of stuff for the 900 series cars, you have to use the translate button on the top right to read the site, but they do ship world wide. It takes a second for the button to show up.
