Help! Upgrading 99 9-3

Hi there, I'm probably crazy but I'm planning to put a used 01 9-3 engine (T7, H.O.T., 15K miles) into the shell of an engineless '99 9-3. (Not sure how it got that way, but I'm ready to work with it.) I'm hoping for all advice on how to upgrade the resulting beast into something approaching -- or surpassing -- a Viggen. Money is somewhat tight, so I'm looking at economical ways at getting more horses and better performance and handling. I've looked at Abbot Racing ($$$, spotty rep?), Taliaferro Imports (aka genuinesaab; $, decent rep), MapTun ($$$$$, great rep.) Please offer any advice! Thanks...
(I also posted this in the 9-3 thread and someone suggested I take it here too.)
