I know it seems like there isn't much juice left in 3rd at 60 mph, it's enough to be worth it. But I'm running a higher geared trans, so I don't recall when the stock 900t's 3rd gear runs out.
Is your car stock, Barry? As far as throwing in 'go fast parts' you can do an easy bit of DIYing to gain some good hp without spending too much cash at all. Search on here for 'apc mod' and 'dist mod' and slap on a 3.0 fpr from a N/A 900, put in a k&n airfilter... should bring you to about 15 psi. If you get bored with that, there's full exhaust, fmic, etc etc etc until your bank account goes negative! ;-)
And at the end of the day, he has a honda and you drive a SAAB. No contest there.
