Agree, get a Bentley.
I've got mixed emotions on the Bypass Filter. I've been using them since they came out--and currently I only have one on my 1985 Volvo .
There is no question that they do at least as well as claimed. I strongly recommend them for any vehicles or other equipment which is in steady use--fleet operations, lawn cutting, more than 35,000 miles a year. Absolutely marvelous for any diesel, excellent for turbos.
For Joe Sixpack, who drives 20-30,000 miles a year, I'm not that sure there is much of a benefit (unless you are selling them, and want to show off under your hood).
Yep, you can put one on your Saab. Mount the filter head on the wheel well on the passenger side. The major problem is acess to the original filter area to tighten the connections. I did mine years ago, and took the better part of a day. No room for large enough wrenches. After some years, it started leaking. The center adapter had backed out (back before they recommended thread locker), so I took it off until I could have a hose made up. The original hose I had made up, but hadn't installed, ended up on my son-in-law's Saab. Still haven't gotten one made up, but then that car is now driven most by my wife, and probably doesn't get 6,000 miles a year.
