Quite honestly, if I couldn't modify my Saab I wouldn't own one. I don't like the idea of getting smoked by Camrys and Accords at stoplights - and that's exactly what happens in a stock classic 900. I'm quite happy with my acheivements with Skugga, my jet-black '90 SPG. I'm not done yet - not by a long shot - but my continuing efforts to improve performance are worth it everytime I get into the car... BUT, I strongly dislike it when people start making claims which are unsupported by the facts. I actually believe a fair number of people reading this group have modified their Saab in some way or another, and I think all of us know what mods have what effect... 240bhp out of a stock Saab engine with nothing but a boost increase doesn't seem particularly plausible... but just because one person posts some unbelieveable modifications doesn't mean we should stop... -Justin
