Default RE: s70 power adders!

1. You need to search.

2. You need to complete STAGE ZERO.

Full stage 0 list:

Plugs
cap/rotor
oil/transflush
filter (oil)
hoses (the little vac lines)
samco hose kit or Stylin Motors Inc. hose kit (Turbo Models ONLY)
02 sensors
fuel pumps
clean injectors
clean IC/IC plumbing (Turbo Models ONLY)
Air filter
plug wires

Also get a boost gauge that can read 25 In Hg/25 PSI.

3. What is your budget?

4. What is your Hp goal?

*The most popular things to do are as follows...

A. Intake
B. Downpipe
C. Catback
D. ECU upgrade

IMO I don't recommend using a Manual Boost Controller (MBC). I suggest you raise the boost via an ECU upgrade.

Again I suggest you search, I have created a wonderful thread that has many different sites listed.

-IPD USA
-EuroSportTuning (EST)
-Viva Performance

These are the three companies I recommend.
