Personally, I hesitate to deviate from manufacturer specifications. There's many variables that can cause more harm than perceived good -- larger filter media surface area.
There are of course newer technologies that can benefit us, like advanced contemporary synthetic motor oils.
There are general brand discussions on the topic out there, but your question is related specifically to this generation of SAAB.
If eEuroparts is providing 'performance' options like this, there's a pretty good chance there is some benefit. It would be a good question for them for one of their Blog articles. I see these are listed in their 'performance' category, if that's what you're looking for.
Are there benefits to using an oversized oil filter?
