Upgrade Question (s)
Discussion
I've had my very reliable SAAB 9000 CDE for fourteen years now and am considering giving it a little more poke. It's currently a 2.0 LPT but was wondering what upgrades can be fitted to improve the performance and handling, turn it into a FPT etc?
Only modification it's had at the moment is a Jetex exhaust so where do I start?

The opportunities for tuning a 9000 are legion! The engine is exceptional strong and will take a big increase in power. Start by reading sites like MapTun and Abbott Racing. Also look at the 9000 forums on SaabCentral.com
Remember that tuning is not entirely a "bit at time" process. Remaps to much higher power will require other changes (exhausts, pipework, intercoolers etc etc) and once you done that you need to ask yourself if the handling and brakes are still good enough. Basically I'm saying do things in "stages" not "bitsas"
