9-3 SS performance tweaks

I've only had my 9-3 linear sports launch+touring package for a week, and have yet to open it up (following Saabs breakin regime religiously). I remember from the demo they loaned me for a weekend that I was wishing for more power when passing on country 2 lanes.
Anybody poked around their engine compartment yet to see what tweaks might be done ? Anythink in the airbox or input that might be removed to improve airflow. ? Spool up times are excellent (better than the Arc I also drove). How about the exhaust ? The T8 is right there under the plastic cover in the engine compartment, but I think I'll wait to see what Speedparts comes up with before chosing between them and Abbott. Very easy access though to change it. Saab used to claim 5 hp from their sports exhaust on the old 9-3/NG900 but give no number on the new one.
Anyone tried the Abbott ECU upgrade ?
