Chipping S80t6

I have to repair my or replace my ECM. Considering a repair and chipping. Is there any real change in performance?

Massive change in performance. A chipped S80 T6 is a freeway monster and a tire shredder.

Too much torque for the platform in stock form, but the top end power you'll pick up will be crazy.

But what do you mean "repair the ECU" ?

400 ft/lbs ??? Darn... i knew volvo's could make some power, but thats massive amounts of torque.... my 67 mustang with a 390ci makes 427 ft/lbs in stock form (closer to 500 now :D )

im glad im jumped to the volvo life..... i know the hp on an S70 is 236, what about torque for that ?

The ECM became damaged when the tail pipe bracket was welded back on without first removing the negative lead of the battery. So its a $1000.00 repair at the dealer or fix it myself and add a little. The important part of this equation is the immoblizier info on the ECM board. Seems there are only a few places that do this.
