[THESE ARE THE MOST UPDATED PHOTOS 8/13/09]
Performance Mods Include:
JT Sweden 3in Downpipe - $498 <<----This is the latest performance mod i've done [8.18.09], but probably should have been my first. I think it made my Aero about 25% better. Before, 3rd gear [I have a 6-speed, by the way] was where I actually felt most of the turbo kick in when driving because of turbo lag in 1st and 2nd. A 3inch downpipe definitely took care of that turbo lag and made it much more responsive/tourquey, as well. It's like this is the way the 9-3ss was meant to be - without restriction.

After all modifictaions done to my Aero, the total amount spent excluding the price of labor as well as shipping and handling comes out to $2,829.87 . With labor and s&h, I'd guess about $3.6k spent. These cars are definitely not cheap to work on. All of this was done throughout about a year since I've acquired my SAAB in August of '08.
