Shame on GM they murdered this company's car side... but I see lots of Saab cars fans around the world, that's awesome! Greetings from a NG 9-3 Vector Sport owner 👋
Not GM, peoples killed Saab ;) Saab was only try to add some better things but for customers it was too expensive. I mean safety, mechanics/electronic parts etc.
So how does other premium car makes get away with so many expensive and highly equipped models? Saab was always a niche for specific type of customer and even in their last years on the market it was considered as rare car, people always want one of the most overhyped ones - Merc, BMW or Audi. My 9-3 SportCombi NG will be forever one of favourite cars I've ever owned :)
I think the reason people don't know about Saab is so the people that do get to enjoy such hidden gems. A wolf in sheepskin my Saab specialist says to me..
Such an amazing build. I had a dark blue 2007 9-3 aero as my first car in 2012. Easily one of my favorite cars. Surprisingly reliable cars especially when stock
My dad had a Saab 93 aero 2lt 210hp. He wasn't the kind of guy who tuned cars so our saab was stock but even stock it was really fast. Now this.....the V6 model is my dream car,and unlike my father i am the guy that messes up with turbos wastegates etc so....i loved your car my friend 👌👌👌
I have been following your work for a while now, i really enjoy your SAAB content and how you have build the Red Fury, keep making videos they are amazing dude! Grettings from Uruguay!
That is absolutely amazing man the sound is just therapy on a weekend I wanna convert my convertible 9-3 lime green to sound like this 😭😭but I have no idea where to begin. Amazing job man keep up the good work 👍😍👏
I love Saab my dad used to have one of the last 93 and it was probably the best car you could possibly have the potential of power this car had I mean a four cylinder with turbo and 180 hp you don’t even have to change hardware to have 3-400 hp just love it
Excellent, I wish there were more videos that include the around town, technical curves and pump it up straights! I would love to see side by side images - 1) central vert view from stick to road & 2) driver view vert of pedals, wheel, Dash & road You just need a video editor to sync & mix it! Safe travels!
Aye 🤘🏽 glad we gave you some motivating to get back into the platform. Congrats on your 9-2x. and really hope you can get a 9-3 Aero next. check our instagram for some motivation 👏🏽
Would love to see you guys do a draggy 60-130 time to show how fast the car really is. Before I got into bmws I had tons of saabs. Had a 2.8 manual and 2.8 auto. The 2.8 auto I did fbo with upgraded 19t full e85. Car was so much fun.
Which did you perfer, the manual or auto? I have a 2.8 auto and I'm kinda thinking of converting to manual cause Idk how much power the automatics can take.
@@_u0nda928 automatic can handle alot of power. I was probably 400whp and 550ftlbs of torque on auto and didn't have any issues. For basic boltons and td04 turbo upgrade the automatic will handle no problem. But when you start installing big turbo kits like these guys are then manual for sure.
Great vid dude. Don't know much about Saab (or most GM vehicles for that matter) but now I kinda want one lol. Have you had any issues with yours before the mods?
I had 2004 Saab 9-5 Arc ( glossy/Blacked out ) with a v6 with an added turbo mod ...let's just say it had some zip and roomier than expected 😢 Rest Well Asa Blavk lol
Astonishing! Very very beautiful indeed! Just why is the front plate like that?

Dude absolutely sick! Well done didn’t even know their was manual xwds on the road! It’s like seeing Sasquatch! And props on being a safe driver not like most a-hole you tubers…
The original gearbox is calibrated to withstand up to a certain engine torque, have you made any changes to the gearbox too so that it can withstand up to 500hp?
@@prolificbuilds Yours is xwd and therefore better download the power to the ground, mine is fwd. For example, I know that the automatic gearbox holds more torque than the manual but some have already broken the gearbox at 400hp, have you ever had problems with the gearbox with so many hp?

building the car faster so i will dyno when i do but u can guess where the power is based on how many lbs/min of air flow. compared my data logs to friends who had dyno there’s and numbers are similar
Cause there is only alowed to add 15% of your stock power. If you want more, you've to do so many test, clarifications and pay a very lot of money. At least so much that it's not worth it. Sad storry. Of course you can do it in the illegal way.. then you can just hope you don't have an accident and the MFK (it's like an mandatory automobil controll every 2 to 3 years) don't get this huuge aircooler and turbo🙃
