LOL it was the complete opposite for me. after i purchased my Audi and later my saab, my aunt called my parents freaking out because she thought i was becoming a republican. :mamoru: i reassured her by telling her true republicans drive the largest SUVs they can find and primarily use then for traveling to the grocery store and country club.

yup!! they are different from the viggen ones though. the inlet and outlet are on the same side of the 2.0 turbo IC. on the 2.3 turbo the outlet is on different sides. it is a pretty common upgrade for the 2.0 people. here is where u can buy the viggen IC and the factory plumbing to make it all work: [http://www.genuinesaab.com/](http://www.genuinesaab.com/)  
IMO though, it would probably be more inexpensive to make a better IC than either. lowlyoilburner on dubsinthebuff is starting his own fabrication shop and i know he is going to be doing a few intercoolers.

dude, you are so lucky i didnt catch you standing on my car 😉

thanks for clearing up the intercooler q.  
i saw that kit on [genuinesaab.com](http://genuinesaab.com), and i also found the arm rest. its driving me nuts not having one. i think i have the typical loose head bolts, and if i have time tomorrow i will pull the valve cover and retorque them.

what do the internals look like on this engine? like can i make 300 to the wheels reliably on stock pistons and rods?
