Just want to share some interesting facts with my fellow 9-3 tuners.
I currently drive a stock Viggen with B&G lowering springs and ITG air filter (pics will be available soon). Had a chance to test drive a stick 9-3 with ECU, Abbott springs & shocks, VRK, SO2 on BBS 17 rims, exhaust modified Saab and let me tell you - disappointed. Not to bash Abbott cause I like them but the VRK doesn't really work especially with increased torque from the ECU. Handling is ok better than stock. It was running 14 psi with about 240hp and was no where close to the Viggen's stock power. Honestly is was day and night when I drove that car. Thought I shed some light with yous, so don't believe everything you read, test it or try it for yourself.
