hi peeps! just thought id share something with everyone :) right, basically, i used to own a 1998reg (99model) v70 t5, and it was superchipped. it was fast dont get me wrong!
But, i have just bought a stock 98 c70 t5 gt last month, and at first it felt more slugish to the turbo than my old chipped v70. probly because of the chip right?? anyway, as soon as the turbo on my c70 kicks in, it pulls much harder than the v70 ever did!! as far as i know, the c70 is stock (i know its a lighter car etc etc, but there's such a difference!)
i was told that the 2 cars have varied engines??? in that the 98reg (99model) v70 has a smaller turbo, but vvt??? and my current early 98 c70, has a larger turbo and thats probly the diffrence????
side by side, both engine bays look the same! lol i would be very greatful if anyone has anymore info on this please??? and would my current stock c70 respond well to a chip and other mods without upseting the ecu?? cheers guys!!! :)
