I've been out of town, otherwise I would have chimed in on this sooner. As you know, I absolutely love my SiS'88, but I've also had to dump a lot of money into it (Tranny, alternator, head gasket, LH Module, ...). Get that top fixed, make sure the stereo and speakers are up to snuff, put the top down, get the revs up between 3000 and 3500, pop the clutch, and have some fun already!!!
Look at it this way, the worst you can do is get bored with it (unlikely) and have to turn around and sell it again on Saabnet. You're going to be able to get your money back again. Everyone around here knows how rare the car is, and that one's been kept in great shape. Be sure to save all of the pictures Raj has posted on the internet of it, so you can reuse them if you choose to sell it in a few years.
As for the comparison of power output. Mine has the Red APC as well, and I truly think it's got higher performance than the non-spg 900's produced at that time, but I can't say for sure whether or not it's got the full SPG performance package. No one knows for sure. The car has plenty of torque, it's just a bit on the heavy side.
You're making the right decision!
