9-5vapilot,
You may have come across one of my posts. I had asked the dealer if it was possible to get some extra HP out of my 99 9-5lpt shortly after I took delivery. He talked with the engineers in Atlanta and they suggested that I could put the ECU from the 99 Viggen in my car. I decided to give it a try since my ECU had a recall on it and the dealer did the swap with no cost to me as part of the recall. My wife has a 00 Aero sedan and my car has probably 85-90% of the power of her Aero. Depending on what you want to gain from the upgrade it may be better to go with an after-market ECU.
I was looking for a gain in passing power on back raods and highways not an increase in 0-60 time, although I did get some gain there. The biggest difference is in 3, 4, and 5 gears while passing.
Good-luck,
Craig
