      Yeah they seem happy up to maybe 350 or so hp. Then I think pistons might melt.

    Everything is so clean and then there is your bumper lol. I'm guessing intercooler was to big and you need a 9-3 bumper to fit it. Man it pulls nice! I have a 96 900 turbo with only 46k miles. Just did stage 3. Looking for more but mine is an auto. Need to do 5 speed swap first. Nice job like the top mount setup. You put some serious coin into that ng900 dam. What kind of power is it putting down?

    • @g3mccotter
      @g3mccotter  2 роки тому +1

      Haha yeah. Basically had to gut a lot of the bumper to get front mount to fit. I didn't dyno it but street tuner who hold fastest Saab record said easy 350 to the wheels. Thing was stretchy fast. Pull the wheel right from your hands. Would hook and book in 2nd just had to have 2 hands on the wheel. 3rd it really pulled hard well the into triple digits.
