Eric,
Who said about getting the trans to fit? Just going to use the SC and keep the long block incase its needed or re sell it... Now I need to wait for the reflash before I can do the SC install. Looks like it will be a weekend of fun at your house soon to come

find a dead saab 9-3! they have been out since 02 (or 03 i forget) with the 2.0 eco turbo and i do believe they have a better head.



Sven you totally quarterloafed your computer..

Shipping here to a local hub so I can pick it up. When the Reflash is ready and I have ready for the swap I will either trailer my car down with the stuff or just bring it down, do the install and get the reflash done at the local dealer that your buddy is working at and go from there. I should have the engine by the end of next week. The reflash is not do for another 6 weeks or so. I still need to get the intercooler and some other smaller items so it wont be till say Sept. or so until this gets installed.

ah but either way should be much easier to find than a SS or redline

well the 2.0 s/c motors sell on ebay , ive watched a 2.0 turbo motor on ebay twice and not sell

i think because it has the SAAB name attached to it , people think its worth the big bucks

than a motor from a chevrolet or saturn


the saab motor on ebay was 2050.00 , and didnt sell twice at that starting bid , LOL

GREAT!!! Good attitude Karo! I hope you can find a way to wire in the motor. You are putting the whole motor in correct? I would love to just buy the 2.0L and swap out my 2.2 Eco, but the wiring and programming was always the issue. Mechanically, it should be very straightforward. I would rather go this route than to buy the GM kit which never actually comes out. Keep us posted.

no... karo isnt swapping the whole motor just the s/c.. that is all. it is in a earlier post of his.

Karo says...

He will be using the SC on his cavalier and the long block will be used for something else along with a nice turbo . . . . . or he might sell the long block not 100% sure....
