Just a page for my SAAB. It was originally a '99 9-5 SE 2.3 lpt 5 speed with 170 horsepower and 207 lbs. of torque. I then upgraded the ECU to BSR's stage 1, replaced the stock air intake cylinder with an open air double mushroom one and fitted some 18" ADR Propulsion wheels. Shortly after that, I upgraded the ECU to BSR's Stage  3, replaced the stock turbo intake pipe with one from an Aero, replaced the stock diverter valve with a black Forge one, and installed a complete 3" exhaust system (from the turbo, all the way back to the exhaust pipe). Both the high flow catalyst and the muffler are from Magna Flow. I recently installed a BSR 2.2 Bar boost gauge as well. It's currently rated at 265 horsepower and 313 lbs. of torque, but I've gotta strap it to a dyno and find out what numbers I'm actually putting down on the asphalt. Next few upgrades (which may take a while) will be turbo, Viggen/Aero clutch, suspension, brakes, and sound system. I installed some L.E.D's on the headlights, but am working on revision B of that. I need a cleaner install, so I've purchased a different style and will be mounting these on the inside of the headlights and corner lights.

Thanks mate, Yeah when you buy rotors, dont get "Cross Drilled" they weaken the structure and cause cracking! Get the dimpled and slotted to help with the heat reduction. I got my complete set for 450.00 with a lifetime warranty against warping! from brakeperformance.com let me know if you have any questions, ill have to tell you all about my experience with them! Keep up the good work! I want to add a custom Nav system, or the 2005 Saab 9-5 Aero Bumper on... What do you think i should do next? The nav is 3000, the bumper is 1500... But im in the inside my car most of the time and really want one... PS. Im so indecisive :(
