Yeah, that's why I didn't do the springs. Like you've noticed, mods that make the Saab competative in it's class push it way up. As much fun as a well-prepared car is, driver skill has an awful lot to do with competativeness. My experience consists of the auto-x school and two events. In both events I was beaten by a little more than a second on a mid-50 second course by a guy with a Contour Sport. Not an SVT, but a Sport. He'd been auto-xing that car for 2-3 seasons and had a fair amount of experience.
I don't think there's any point to upping the power if the goal is auto-x. The car just can't put down the power it already has. Grip and traction are what it needs. Hmmm, the steering rack brace might slide under the SCCA radar and would probably help a bit.
Where are you located?
