Hirsch doesn't tune the 270hp version of the same engine in Buick's, right? Why can't SAAB/GM folks do it themselves for these cars too? The 220hp Turbo Regal is the same as the 220hp Saab 9-5 (engine-wise).
At any rate, I'd not be upset with 220 hp from a smoother motor. Compare the old 2.3s in the old 9-5 to the new DI 2.0 motors. Big difference. A bit of character is lost with the lumps being gone, but they seem to be more efficient.
