Car made 416 bhp and 403 lb/ft torque @ 1.5 bar, should have been 1.8 bar but this was down to a split Intercooler hose and the base Boost needs to be raised a fair bit! Loads more to come here....Very happy so far, totally different driving experience to the GT28RS. Fair bit slower lower down, but goes ballistic above 4k!!
Saab 9000 Aero GT3076R 450bhp 425lb:ft
New Intercooler pipe fitted, red forge spring instead of the blue and a fresh re-map. Pretty happy with that! 34bhp increase since the last run! Still missing 0.3 bar though so loads more to come. Next mod is the tubular....
saabflight tuned Saab 9000 Aero - a tribute
A tribute to my Saab 9000 Aero 'Babe' the Tarmac Terrorist. We've been through alot in the 6 years i've owned her, hope the next 6 years are just as fun hehe.
I do not own the music and no copyright has been infringed
Saab B205 62mm Dyno Run 710whp
Found a bit more with the improved intake manifold and head on the b205. R14 on the spring, then playing with Boost control to flatten it out. Check Out trolltuner to read the rest of the fun we had.
saab 9000 strikes back
my new madness... make a full swap of a '96 9000 aero into a '90 9000 airflow.
starting the engine once of the very first times.
~ 700hp Turbo Saab, 312kmh (194mph)
Extreme turbo Saab + 300 kmh
Many viewers have misunderstood this video, so I explain it a little:
-Speed at finish line (1mile/1609m) is measured. Time is not measured.
-First Saab does 1st and 2nd gear with ~half throttle. Second Saab has limited Boost for 1st and 2nd gear.
- three extra seconds between 0-100kmh typically means ~30meters wasted. But three extra seconds used in speeds close to 300kmh, means almost 300meters wasted.
Here is equally powerful RWD cars (if not even more HP's) These RWD's are a lot faster between 0-150kmh, but these Saabs are faster from 150kmh-300kmh. You get the point when you compare speeds at finish line. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urWWdomnncw
-A Saab 9-5 driver pushes a little too much throttle @3rd gear and looses traction. He lifts a throttle and pushes it back, but too much again and then he gears up 4th, a bit earlier than planned. (optimal is@205kmh).
Earlier that summer I broke one gearbox when pushing too hard on 3rd gear.
With new gearbox and at later event, I drove very gently on first three gears to avoid breaking it again. I pushed WOT for the first time on 4th gear @ 190kmh. You can hear it clearly on following video. Engine tone changes totally around 200kmh. Incar video is from 299kmh pull (at 1 mile race) Something happened to camera during the run. So I didn't get any incar video from a 305kmh pull. To see that run from the start line, please see my other videos.
Here is incar video until camera dies. Start is @1min. http://youtu.be/M4NNX4Ygnwc
Boat with 2 Saab's turbocharged engines
Boat: Vator 22 ft. with two turbocharged SAAB B234 engines.
It's my cousin's boat and he has made most of effort on this job.
My cousin has followed my standing mile races with my Saabs for years now. Late 2010 he said that he will get rid of his old Mercruisers and put a Saab's engines instead, if I help to tune those for a boat use.
So here we are :)
These are an early tests and we are looking forward for summer 2013 ;-)
