Subject: VERY CURIOUS) whats up with the fixed torque rating on the 9-3


Hey, I was going through some specifications of 9-3 engines. The 185 hp Automatic has a max torque of 184.4 ft.lb. Its pretty inpressive. I have the 2002 version 205 horsepower auotmatic. To my surpirse, the torque rating is exactly the same in the 184 horsepower version in comparison to my 205 horsepower version. Whats up with this? I notice that the manuals support a 12.5ft.lb. addittion from the 184 horse to the 205 horse. I would not mind the 12.5ft.lb. adition to my automatic...to get my 184ft.lb somewhere near 200ft.lb of torque. Can anything be done to tune the torque up a bit, or is their a reason why Saab did this to my precious torque.
