Re: Turbo X muffler ![]() Posted by md2boys [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: Turbo X muffler, magalar ![]() ![]() |
Thank you for the responses. I like the idea of a 4-Cyl exhaust. I will have to look into this. I did find the following options, both cat backs which I am not a big fan of, but there is a small performance boost.
The options are:
1) Maptun: https://www.maptunparts.com/exhaust/maptun-sport-exhaust/4186/cat-back-twinpipe-9-3-ii-61l-tank-twinpipe-performance.html
2) Genuine SaaB/Tagliaferro: https://genuinesaab.com/catalog/product_info.php?&products_id=628
I have had Maptun exhaust on my Viggen for about 15-years. The quality is superior with absolutely no rust on it at all. It is built really well and the performance boost was noticeably significant.
The price between the two is the same after shipping from Maptun.
BTW owning a Turbo X is a real pain. Finding parts for this car is about 10x harder than finding parts for my 2001 Viggen. Don't get me wrong, the car is a great car, just when something goes wrong it will cost you. Example - Left shock went bad and started to leak. At the time there were no options for a replacement except factory version, $695 later a new shock was delivered. Last month, the right shock went out and nothing was available-thank god eSaabparts.com has a kit, and I replaced both rear springs and shocks for less than 1 factory shock. I have 3 Saabs that are daily drivers and they are all in great condition. The Turbo X is by far the most difficult to work on and maintain. Part of owning a fine vintage car I guess.
Thank you all for your help!!!
