And not have to hack your nice factory built car into a hodge podge of parts that may or may not work together, the fact is that at 305 HP( the level of the top Hirsch model) the power does not get to the road that well. I drove it with all the modifications that Hirsch has to offer,in wagon form and off the line I would take the stock 250 HP automatic any day. Saab is going to need AWD to take a car like this to the next level. AS dean says, what tuners tell you is sometimes shrouded in a cloud of smoke. What they might say is a modificaton that has no problems might be because they are willing to have tradeoffs in driveablilty that a street driver would not consider. That was my impression of the Hirsch car for what it's worth.
