    ECU Remap - When and Where?

    I'm really looking at getting a bit more power from my S60 T5 and my initial thoughts were remapping the ECU. Should I do any other modifications prior to this mod? I have already changed the filter to a a ITG panel filter.

    Hi Luke,


    what year is the T5 and what gearbox has it got?


    What other modifications are you thinking of?


    GRN offer quite a selection of remaps and modifications depending on your requirements.



    Thanks

    exhaust and 3" down pipe will make a good difference combined with a remap. that shouls get you around the 280 mark

    All depends what sort of gains/power you want from it??

    I would say start with a map, they do become quite 'lively' with a map.

    then if you want abit more grunt and ooomph, go for a 3"dp, and 2.5" cat back, a decent air intake, maybe a larger front mount intercooler and a custom map to suit.

    Where are you based??
