The link below is probably the best one available. There are a few draw backs....
1. Ultimately you'd want to run this before the cat, so spacing can be an issue...also no matter where you run it, you want to find someway to route the exhaust gases out from underneath the car.
2. If you live in the snow states, don't expect it to function properly after the winter.
3. It will be difficult to tune the car to optimize the hardware. Ideally you could run one map for the closed position and one for the open, but there is not much in the way of switchable map equipment for saab...If you were to go with a turboback exhaust and tuning, you'd getting better results(obviously for more $$$$$$$)
4. Your hp/tq increase will vary greaterly depending on which saab you have...T5 and older will give a big bump, t7 maybe not so much.
The bottom line is that turbos like things to be about as open as possible after the turbine and you could see as much as 15% increase in hp and tq depending on the current set-up.
