Nope. Someone here posted an article at some point about how it was done by a shop with heavy work and it actually lowered torque and HP as well.

I thought that the XS Turbo charger came with a chip and it lowered your lift rpm? Maybe im wrong but I thought that was what was said...but other than that, you cannot.
