ok, so the Viggen 2.3L HO has a time limited overboost that allowed it to reach the 250hp mark for a brief period of time. Can you go into a little more detail as to when and for how long this overboost is engaged?
This is very enlightening to know that my Viggen has a little hp....though I've suspected such. Anyway I see Saab marketing's thinking here...most other car companies claim peak HP and that is what they're doing here. I do disagree on their decision not to claim the 250 back in '99 or '00...I'm assuming their plan was to increase the number all along down the road so people would assume the engine was updated. Sneaky those marketing guys!
Thanks!!
