Sell it and purchase a turbo model. T5 or GLT.

1. Welcome to the forum.

2. You say 1998 S70, but what you don't tell us it what model you bought. Is it a N/A meaning non turbo, is it the GLT ( Turbo model ) or is it the T5 ( Turbo model )?

3. If your N/A then I suggest selling it and buying a GLT or T5 model. However if your hell bent on making your N/A fast you can do so. It's just going to cost you money.

4. If your a GLT or T5 already then you have options, still going to cost you a lot of money but you have options.

- 3" mandrel bent downpipe
- 2.5" or 3" mandrel bent catback with free flowing straight through design muffler
- FMIC ( Front Mount Intercooler )
- ECU upgrade
- Etc...
