i would agree if the saab had 485 bhp it would have been alot faster and 0-60 @ 8-9 seconds is on a lpt turbo @ 154bhp,i have a saab 93 with 450bhp with qlsd fitted and light flywheel and heavey duty clutch and it gives most porche turbos a run or even a fright as it pulls away,
seriously doubt the saab was a genuine 485bhp, if it was, it would't drop back so quick. My guess it was under the 300 mark. Still sweet though (both cars).
@faster4tec Yes, but one should keep in mind that this SAAB was about as fast as a lightly tuned E92 M3. (~450+hp) So the SAAB is fast but this Porsche does 62-124 mph in 6,5 seconds so I think the outcome of the race is about as expected.
@faster4tec That saab has 485, it is VERY fast. But that porsche has ~100 hp more, of course it is going to pull away. And the Porsche gear ratios might be better than saab as well ;) like THBM3 says, he makes 62-124 in 6.5 secs, that saab does so in about 8.5-9 secs.. ;) you travel very far at per second at those speeds :)
what is the name of the rims on the 9-3? :)

@aldo1conn Ok but we were talking about times running 62-124 mph, not 0-60. That's a big difference :)

der Saab hat wenn überhaupt 300+ hp..! sonst würde der Porsche den Abstand nicht sooo vergrößern!!!

@speedfreek39 The SAAB was as fast as a M3 E92 with ECU+intake+exhaust, that was very good if it has just 300 hp...
