S40 Siemens chip and exhaust S40-V40

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has done the chip and exhaust from IPD in their S40 1.9T. Is there a noticeable difference? How about the Sport Springs?
Thanks

    There is another alternative-Upsolute. Their chip is about $350 and yields about the same HP gain. The torque is not as high as IPD's. www.upsolute.com

    Buy the springs!! I just had a set installed on my 2002 S40 sport, 7k. The shop put them on and adjusted the rear camber to -1.5. The look and feel are completely transformed; this is how the car is supposed to behave!!
    I'd like to get the reprogramed ecu package, but for now I have a K&N and a drilled & gutted airbox. It's not loud at all, and must provide better flow. The high cost of the package ($1400) is a lot, even if the hp gains are as great as they say. Cheers
