This is the filter cartridge after the Bilstien Engine Flush. As you can see it was very clean. The prior car, Isuzu Rodeo had about two inches of black grease setteled at the bottom here ( a very sludgey car ) the tech said.

My Current Mods:
Saab Sport Suspension
JT 3" Downpipe and Race Cat
Saab Remus 2.5" Square tip Cat back
JSP Stage III ECU 259 WHP 330WTQ 300BHP ( Soon Replaced By Jak Stoll Stage 5+)
Saab BBS RK one-piece Wheels with BBS Centers
Kuhomo ASX Z rated 225 45 17

These are the Wilwood Calipers I am adapting to fit my car. Of course the fronts are the larger but believe it or not the rears are 4 psiton and have the same clamping poer of the fronts. I will probably grind off the Willwood logo since I think Drag racing calipers just don't go with the SAAB style, If you know what I mean. I chose Wilwood because they are relatively cheap ( in case I screw them up) and have the proper piston size to work with the Brake Master without ( I hope) needing any rebalancing. I am going to get them powdercoated with this logo.

Here are the Front Powder coated black and CNC engraved ( you can see the engraving tool marks but I may either buff them out since they are not deep - you can barely feel them with your fingernail. I am also considering getting urathane brake paint and pouring it in the well made by the engraving. Probably I'll use red.

Here is the new rotor. Look at it compared to my current rotor size ( this is a rusty pair I pulled off weeks ago while fitting the new kit and left out in the rain) which is the stock 9-5 LPT size. Notice the difference. I'll be putting them on my car as soon as Jak Stoll gets done with it. I'll have both go fast and stop fast mods then LOL

all that and only 240 hp? nordic stage 3 can get you 270. throw in the new turbo and your other custom work and you'd push 280.
