look at http://www.saabperformanceparts.com/item75.htm
I have no connection with them, just something I noticed while looking around.
I think (and I'm pretty sure a tech will agree) that the performance improvements are going to be minimal because the airflow upon which the engine management system "works" is based upon the airflow across a heated wire (more air, wire is cooled more; less air, cooled less; voltage changes are interpreted by the ECU and will affect injection, etc....meaning the ECU kinda cancels out any specific imrovements)
It certainly "looks" trickier and on my MGB might be a better lashup than stock. But there's no ECU on that beast.
A K&N can end up cheaper because you clean it not replace it.
