i think the k03-s was standard on these engines after 2001 in 150bhp and 180bhp guises,so 180bhp should be achievable with just a remap. fitting an aftermarket exhaust and a decent panel air filter or induction kit should give even more power.

just been offered one of these very cheap.i know next to nothing about saabs so was wondering if anyone can tell me if the 3.0l turbo diesel is any good. will a remap etc give good power gains or would i be wasting my time?

my a4 is 17years old and still pulling strong,the front arches are starting to bubble (they all do that sir) but other than that she's sweet as a nut.

lol:lol:

is that the one james may drove on topgear,is it 4 wheel drive?

i drove a insignia today,just a boggo 1.9d i think ,it was a hire car work got me to drive to atherstone to attend a course.it was an automatic. tbh nice enough car but nothing special to drive,it was just ....alright. get the seat.;)

lol,not in your lifetime mate:lol:

99% of the time. all day in the wagon and work and back in the car,the missus only gets in it if we're going out at a weekend.

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

i had a 1.8 petrol estate mk1 as company car and i loved it.the 1.8 engine was imo the best of the zetec engines ,the perfect balance of power and reviness if there is such a word,ive never driven the diesel so couldnt honestly comment.

new fiat panda.twin cylinder turbo.a taste of things to come?

agreed. avoid anything that claims to increase horsepower/economy or fix your knackered engine by simply pouring it into your engine/fueltank,its all rubbish and a waste of your hard earned cash.;)

any chance of a photo so we know what we're looking for.

tracky bottoms+sandals+welding=hero great project mate,can't wait to see the end result.
