Hi All,

I have a '94 9000 cse that I plan on upgrading. I want better handling
and of course more HP/torque. Here is what I'm thinking of doing, please
let me know if you have any suggestions as to which way to go, or if
there are better ways of accomplishing this.

1: Putting in a Group 9 Stage 3 ECU and 3" Exhaust. I was also
considering the Swedish Dynamic ECU or the Abbot Racing ECU. Which is
the best?

2: Suspension /Handling. This is where I get totaly lost. I want
handling somewhere between the Stock ride and a Viggen. I'm not happy
about the way it plows into corners, and handles curves, but I don't
want an overly harsh ride. I'm considering some new springs/struts and
some better bushings. Any suggestions as to which ones to go with?

thanks

Craig

Thanks Henrik,

Group9's ECU is the Maptun ECU. They are the ones that sell it here in
the states.
