I ran my 2.3 with some minor changes against a locally highly rated modified 9000. All of us were surprised that I got the better of the 9000.
But I am concerned about the above quoted acceleration times for a calculated 145BHP. My car has been tested on a bench at 170bhp, and on the best of days I cannot beat 7.1 seconds for the 0-60mph.
My car garage (SAAB specialists who can do wonders!)have a converted NG900 with a turbo charged V6 2.5 they put together themselves. They also have close links with ABBOTS Racing. That car produces around 300BHP. Even then, 0-60 is only 5.9 sec. The car looses out on the initial start, due to lack of grip and the weight of the car.
But the handling is freightening! Even worse than the Viggen.
