I just watched a good chunk of the episodes. A bit silly and repetitive, but the Australians are certainly amusing. I thought they were going to totally butcher the Saab, but honestly I kind of liked the results. The dyno figure (133hp I think) is about stock for a 160hp engine once you factor in drivetrain loss. I don't think the airbox and exhaust mods would do much for performance and the thing had 250k on it, so not bad in that sense. They put in a boost controller which certainly could have made a big difference, but they didn't mention any fueling mods at all so I wonder if they were really running much more than stock boost at all. Should have at least put in a rising rate FPR and cranked up the boost a bit for the dyno!
