Saab 9000 LH-jetronic turbo tuning

[Hyttinen, Timo]

Hi!

Yes, the cool air is one of the vital things in this turbobusiness. A good
intercooler can help a quite a bit when higher boost levels are desired. In
Saab 9000 the original IC is more efficient than the one in 900 turbos.
Therefore, lots a people use the IC from 9000 in 900 turbos. But In the
final stage, like you mentioned, IC should be water-based in order to get
the max out of the project.

Regards

Timo Hyttinen

Hi,

I'd add one thing for tuning a SAAB Turbo for more performance.  My Cousin
in the UK had is 900 upgraded to use a water cooled intercooler.  Had a
separate water pump and radiator and apparently was worth about 25 extra
ponies.  Might be the best place for that extra bit before mucking with the
internals.
