Dump valve(long)

Help? I'm confused by the mention of the upgraded dump valves referred to by many on the board. I have a '99' 9-5 LPT auto. I have K&N drop in filter replacement, Abbott cat/bypass downpipe mated to a Saab Sport exhaust. This setup gives noticeable power and throttle response increase. My question is will the upgraded dump valve, (does the LPT even have one) do anythin for me. I will eventually go to ECU upgrade but have been waiting for recalls and warranty issues to stabilize first. Also my mileage from city driving is not as good as factory claims. I only get 17mpg rather than 19-20 claimed. I am mildly agressive driver, sometimes step on it, but most times normal. Any ideas, suggestions, reccomendations? I also run Redline 10W-30 synthetic oil. I was under the impression that the viggens had an upgraded valve that could be retro-fitted to all Saab turbos.
