He has t5suite if I read correctly… I did some research on it, I am confident that I can tune that bitch. :hug any time. lol Vote JD for tooner of the year! > [@Arrested for Spilling Cake...](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/arrested-for-spilling-cake/36343/3): > > Its a 2.0, the 2.3 came in the viggen version. Regardless, im pretty sure both motors can hold similar power. I have t5suite, its a free software program that saab users set up. Its pretty nice, you can download your cars stock map, add your upgrades and tune from there. i also have a port under the dash that plugs into my laptop that can be tuned in car. The ECU is a t5 that came in the 94-99 9-3’s. Would it be better to rebuild the td04 and get ~290whp or take that money and try and find at gt28rs and tune it down to ~300whp. Anyone know where i could find a gt28 in a t25 flange? ALso, do i need to upgrade injectors or is the walbro enough? > > Thanks for all the responses! hopefully they just bump the displacemtn and didnt just install forged pistons or rods in the viggen and put cast dumpers in the normal 2.0. that would decide what power handling difference there would be. ecu is a go then it sounds. the injectors &/or fuel pressure regulator are piece A and the pump is piece B in the puzzle. A walbro 255 (make sure ist a 255 not the 150lph) supports plenty fo flow for your goals. the injectors should be at min 440cc @ 3bar. if you bumped the FPR up to 3.5 bar or 4 they would give you 500cc or so. I am basing my figures off the 1.8t’s K03 eliminator kits that are 440 cc, @ 3 bar GT28RS kits. they run around 20-26psi make around 300whp and dont really max the injectors. If the price difference itsnt major, jump to a 550 or 630cc injector and run them at 3 bar. the ecu will dial down injector duty cycle to feed the motor correctly and just give it more head room. spray patterns and what not arnt that big a deal to worry about between the 440 and 630’s. As for prices, get on google and find out. A turbo rebuild, dont right is usually 200-600 depending on what needs to be replaced, and how easy the parts can be sourced.
