I recently aquired a '01 9-5 v6 from a relative for a song. Looks great next to my other sweedish cars too. I don't know much about it but it feels like it has alot of untaped potential. It rides very smooth but doesn't provide alot of road feel back to the driver which is something I'm used to and would like more of. It also seems like alot more power could be produced by the v6 than currently is. So - questions: 1) Pointers on suspension mods - progressive sport springs, firmer shocks, upgraded anti-sway bars? Poly bushings? Something about aero suspension upgrades? 2) Engine modification. What's going to get the most bang for the buck as a stage 1 modification? Are ECU reprograms or chips available? Matched performance exhaust sytems? Intake? More boost? Issues? 3) What vendors and/or enthusiast sites cater to saab owners? I'm very familiar with the volvo crowd but haven't had much luck turning up similar resources for the saab. TIA, I hope I don't get flamed here or by the volvo folks for crossing over. -K
