ECU Upgrade

[Lawrence Lee]

Dear Members,

I have just placed an order for an Ash Gold Pearl XC70.  Wondering if you guys could advise is there an ECU Upgrade for the current model XC70 (210 bhp)?  

Appreciate if you guys could link some of the sites which could do such re-programming, etc.

Thanks!

Lawrence

That topic has been covered by a prior thread.

I believe the person you wish to contact was Bill. Check out this link...

I've upgraded my 01 XC with a very nice tool called PPC. The fancy thing about this is that you can reinstall the original factory settings at any time. You just connect it to the diagnostic OBDII port inside your car and load the program. It takes approximately 2 minutes to install/reinstall original settings - pure magic.
For the 2,4T and 2,5T engine first step takes you to 252HP and 410 NM.
If you understand Swedish you can read more about the PPC on www.bsrab.se. - or alternatively mail them in English on: [email protected].
The company, BSR,  is well recognised in Scandinavia, and you can trust them 100%.

wow, what is the price on one of these PPC puppies?
410 NM is quite amazing with just stage 1 ECU upgrade.
What will the later stages take you up to?

How long have you had your PPC?
