It's my opinion that the B234R engine is the best engine Saab
ever made. This runs contrary to what Saabs' used to be about:
constant refinement and improvement. I have yet to see a good
argument to suggest that the B235R is a better engine. Ok, the
T7 may be a slightly better device to control an engine, but the
T5 offers much more flexibility for tuning. I'm not sure what you
mean by "bulletproofing" the balance shaft system - look at Maptun's
9000 : with way over 400 hp, Fredrik doesn't seem to be having
any problems with his balance shafts. I've never heard of anyone
having problems with the balance shafts on their Aeros', and if there
are any, I'm sure they're rare. If you're going to use the trionic for
engine management, then you might as well start with the strongest
engine Saab ever built. If you're going for 400 hp then you'll need
stronger pistons, but I wouldn't be surprised if the stock ones are
good at 350 hp. I've got experience installing trionic motors, complete with wiring harness, into the '92 vehicles, so if you have
any questions, don't be afraid to ask........good luck!
