with improved driveability (less torque steer, better response from the engine/turbo, etc.) it may (key word) approach the previous SE versions in stock performance. I seriously doubt it will challenge the Viggens in any form for raw performance.
The test will come when they actually get out and about in the hands of enthusiasts like those here at SAABNET. It will also be interesting to see what mods will be applicable to the '03 9-3.
My two cents...
