For cooling efficiency...

...I (and others here) have different solutions, in my case the combination of the Trent Saab IC fan kit and water injection. Intake temps are not the issue here as a result, but some people here felt that the stock c900 intercooler is 'too restrictive' for high hp yields. It might still be, but as per the thread above the alternatives that make use of an OE Saab IC are even worse in this respect. Note also that some 9K's using what turns out to be the most restrictive OE intercooler make about 300 hp without drastically oversizing the turbo, so I am about to declare IC pressure drop a non-issue here...
