Hey Guys/Gals, I'm going over and over in my mind what I should be doing next with my SAAB 9000T Aiorflow 126k. Below is a list of things I already have and what I'd like to do but I need help..

Have:
SPG9 stage #1 APC
27Lb Injectors
2.8 FPR
20 PSI BPV
SPG9 Big Bore T-body
K&N open-air Filter
8mm Magnecore Wires
Silicone Hoses
Performance so far has been positive. It's been kinda cool here lately (South Georgia) and the boost needle will run into the RED ZONE about 1/4-1/3 the way but, once there it's doesn't or won't go further. Just bounces back and forth in that region. I believe that an exhaust upgrande is in order and I've been trying to get around to it but have only now had the time.

This brings me to the reason for why I'm here. Would you go ahead with the exhaust or something else that I haven't considered?

1).I could simply have one or both mufflers removed from the stock system and see where that leads. Others here have done so and it seems to be o.k to do. That would be cheap!

2).I could get just the JT 3" downpipe then have it installed locally with the remainder of the system staying stock but with the mid muffler removed.

3).I could get the complete JT 3" exhaust form the turbo to the tail and have it installed, this being the most expensive I presume.

If these aren't the way to go then I'd be looking into ignition upgrades such as the SPG9 A.I.D or the MSD or whatever ignition module.

Thanks, for you imputs, Phil
