Increasing the horsepower can be done, but is costly. Taliadferro Saab (http://www.genuinesaab.com/) offers the SpeedParts ECU and other parts as well. The automatic transmission will never allow the NG900 to be a real contender off the line. That is why my Saab is modified for speed and handling. The Saab turbo’s real forte is cruising/fast secondary road running. I have some $3000 in handling and speed mods. I believe it is worth the money, but don’t believe for a second my insurance company will reimburse me a dime if anything should happen to my car.
Search the Performance BB for more information about upgrading or modifying your NG900.
