The car is now sporting a Td04-15t-6cm2. Below is a picture of my 91 9000T with Ricks 93 CDE that got a full T5 aero drivetrain swap over the summer while i was at Basic training. unfortunatly for him after all that work my car is still much faster.
Ill be gone at AIT all summer, then WYOTECH in Laramie, Wyoming where i will be taking Diesel, Street rod, and high performance. when i get back the car will hopefully get Repainted, with a Spec clutch, and be left in the Daily driver state.
11/27/07, well im going to put the intrax back in with the SAS sways, trying to save my money for some bilstein HDs. at the moment teh car is off the road for the winter, as it has been harassing local athorities. chris said it felt faster tehn his 02 9-5 aero, which i watched dyno at 220 whp.. i would like to think i can match or beat that with my car:)

Earlier in the summer. during the intrax spring era
struttin on the lawn
Proof that i wasnt bullshitting about the aero interior
gauges on the dash, if i did it again, it think id position them a little different, with more angle towards the driver, but there nice anyway, give it a "race" theme.
the face of (aprox) 270 hp and 300ftlbs torque...
9/16/07 Back to a T25 as the T3 got starved of oil and died.. a few more mods i did over the summer.
JT 3 inch DP with custom cat back exaust, magnaflow cat with summit turbo muffler, that i will be replacing soon. S
Swedish Dynamics Red Series DIAPC/Fuel EProm(s)
Autometer 30PSI boost gauge
Autometer Air fuel gauge.
9-5 BPV
SuperAeros
mesh grille
SAS SWAYBARS
Walnut dash
the car is the fastest thing in my local vicinity.. before mods it did 277wtq(ftlbs) and 205 whp, now hoping for around 230 whp and 300 wtq..
working on a water injection system i got from a friend. the tiny turbo and shitty stock IC is holding me back alot.. hopefully Tdo419t and FMIC in the near future, maybe T3/t4.. waiting for my income tax. as it sits the car hauls royal ass, but after a couple months of driving it in its present tune im looking for more..
2/18/07 my turbo shit the bed a week or so ago and im trying to convert it to a T3 off an 88 9000... should be up and running soon.
1/20/07 i resealed a block i got from a friend, and it must have had a spun bearing or something cuz i threw a rod after 350 miles... dropped in my spare... looks like im gonna reseal another engine for it in a while..sad too, no leaks anywhere and it skunked a WRX on the highway..
This is what my 91 saab 9000 turbo 5 speed currently looks like... i am now working to repaint the grille, and possibly paint the sideskirts to match the car. i converted it from tan interior, to black, and i put in black "AERO" seats made by recaro. i have ummm, taken care of teh airbag. at the moment i have an MBC on it, but thats just because i want more power NOW. i plan to ether convert my car to T5 or get the SD chips in the near future, i have another engine that is going in when i get a chance, and i plan to paint it blue, would have done red again but too many people do red so i wanted to be different. dont tell me im going to blow my engine, because i dont care. the current engine has just about every seal leaking oil so if it throws a rod or cracks a piston.
this is what my "Jr AERO" looked like a few months ago, i think this pic is before my interior teardown and black grille.
i really need to snap a pic of the interior as i have none that are good.
