The L series is darn quick for a $20,000 car without a turbo. 7.4 sec 0-60 and 7.8 sec 0-60 for the V6 wagon. I know, I've got one as well as our 9-3. 9-3 is faster though.
Also, the small amt of turbo lag can get you in those times when you need to just "goose" the gas.
How about a windshield washer check valve in line with the vaccum line going from the turbo to the BPC? Increases throttle response but doesn't take the ECU out completely. Nice safe and cheap upgrade.
