Brandoson ran a 13.8 in the 1/4 with 6 psi with the garrett. from the sabb 9-3 I'm not sure how much boost they can push. he ran at 15psi for a little bit. it is a small turbo. you will get less power from the mitsu turbo from the sabb. we put that one on his car for a bit.

What? The mitsu turbo is the higher pressure one, not the garrett. the mitsu came on the b207r high pressure model.

Your right I'm sorry. I don't know how I did that. Brandoson is my brother. I had the garret one. we put it on his car to see how it ran once. I sold it. I really like the sabb setup. If for some reason the one I have now dosn't end up working out. I will be getting the sabb.

I am now the proud owner the the exact setup that was on Brandsons car.

I ran a 13.9 the first day at the track with horrible conditions.

how much would it cost to piece this all together, does anyone have a list of what is useable parts from the saab and what i would have to buy/fabricate? What car did you guys take your setup off of?

More importantly, where did you find all of this? I'm guessing scrounging local junkyards. eBay has nothing to offer. It would be mighty nice to have someone do an actual write up.

I have a saab 93 (2000) T25, according to garrett, it should handle around 250hp.

I ran the saab garret on mine and ran around 11psi intercooled you can expect to see full spool around 3k sometimes even less. It was perfect for what i wanted and the set up i ran, definetly not the one i would choose for high horsepower goals.

300 is pushing it...you may be able to get a bit around 250-270....thats why i went another way and sold mine..
