Well, you didn't mention mileage, but any increase of HP and torque will consume the saab 5-speed. I am not saying that every tweek will blow up the trans, but a box with 100,000 miles is tired, and then you ask for it to take more abuse, it is very poss. you will strip/crack/break something in the driveline. I was running high boost and driving hard. Now, after doing the trans, I have turned down the boost and still enjoy the car.
You can slightly mod the box, but make sure you look at at least getting a 3.0 fpr, and making sure the car is in great running condition.
Oh yea, once you start, be warned-it gets very addictive and $$$$.
Just my 2 cents.
