How much mileage is on your 850, cause a late reflash in something with high mileage where the tolerances are lower already maybe isn't a good idea.

what kind of upgrade are you looking for?

if you want mild upgrade, go for 850R/t5-r (20+ hp), check ebay, volvospeed and swedespeed.


dont know any local places to get it done. If you dont mind sending it to the states try ipd, inmotion, or speedtuning
