Switch ECu to make it faster? 850 1997

You are going to need a larger turbo. The T5 had a high pressure turbo, your turbo is low pressure.
You do have a turbo? Then you should already be producing about 208bhp.

If you do not have a turbo, an ECU upgrade will not help.

Plus, the T5 has a better intake port and beafier piston connecting rods.

The 164 has a new home, all I am left with are a 95 854T and a 98 V70R :)
