...make sure to pull the two screws that hold the BPC or its bracket to the radiator fan shroud, and also the hoses attached to the BPC. They are of excellent quality rubber if OEM Saab, and the exact length and have made ends to fit where they should go. Lock mini visegrips onto the spring clamps on the ends at wastegate actuator and turbo and slide back before prying ends free. Note where they connect.
The wiring connector to plug the BPC into is already there on your CS, just bent back and ziptied out of the way.
You'll need to open the "aquarium" to harvest the CSE or Aero ECU.
If you want a boost gauge and you don't mind a bit of work to get one it's already there on the car you're getting your BPC and ECU from. Remove speaker grilles and the various screws to remove the dash top, pull it, then screws that hold the gauge cluster in, pull it, then the righthand end of the gauges can be unscrewed and harvested, boost gauge included, to replace the same piece on your CS. Grab the vac line at same time, and at least the T connector on the vac line that goes up into the aquarium to connect to the boost gauge.
Then it's basically plug and play.
