Very nice, I wonder what's the tranny loss figure they use for this car when performing the chasis dyno. Regardless, they were never known for overestimating the HP gain, MY 2000 owners should really appreciate the power from the 19T. <IMG NAME="icon" SRC="http://********************/smile/emwink.gif" BORDER="0"> <p>Hmmm.....power.....hehehe...can't wait to put my turbo on.

Hrm, is that going to be considered their ``Stage 3'' programming? I wonder if they plan to allow any type of upgrade process, for existing owners.

Good question-- I haven't dealt with IPD to know what type of customer service they offer, hopefully it is a minimal charge for them to reflash the ECU with the updated info.
