Thanks for the feedback about aftermarket cams. We have heard good things about several of them, but for our initial powerplant, we will be choosing from either 1988 900 2.0 turbo cams, or 1992 9000 2.3 turbo cams. The latter are obviously designed to work fairly well with the 1992 9000 turbo (2.3) cylinder head we are using on our 1988 SPG 2.0 motor. Of course we would have to add a notch in the 9000 DI/APC exhaust cam for the distributor shaft on our car (until we go to DI/APC/Trionic ;)
While it is easy enough to swap cams, we are just wondering if anyone has found one or the other of these stock SAAB cam setups to be better when using a 2.1/2.3 head (in stock form) on a 2.0 turbo bottom end (also in stock form). Has everyone who has done this upgrade also gone to aftermarket cams at the same time as the head swap?
I currently have 1988 900 2.0 turbo cams in my turbocharged 2.1 car, which does have the 2.1 (same as 2.3) head. I have never tried to use 9000 2.3 turbo cams in that car though.
Thanks again,
Eric H.
