About the remap

Stage 1 chip tuning for the Saab 9-5 2.3 Turbo 185hp increases power from 185 to 223 hp (+38 hp, +21%) and torque from 280 to 340 Nm. Turbocharged petrol engines respond exceptionally well to ECU optimization – adjusting ignition timing, boost pressure, and fueling maps unlocks the hidden potential built in by the manufacturer.

The remap is performed on the Trionic Trionic 7 ECU (engine code B235E) via the OBD2 diagnostic port – no ECU removal required. Results are verified with a dynamometer measurement.

Stage 2 is also available for the Saab 9-5 2.3 Turbo 185hp – the next level of optimization with even more significant power gains. Stage 2 involves ECU calibration tailored to modified intake and exhaust systems. Consult our specialists to evaluate the potential.

Every vehicle undergoes full diagnostics before and after the remap. We keep a backup of the original ECU calibration and guarantee the option to revert to stock settings at any time. JVK PRO is a professional chip tuning service in Riga with 16 years of experience.
