Is this a stock aero? It doesn't look stock though.

[thklinge]

Yeah, it's stock. :)

[raimond31]

I also own an aero and have seen many videos from these cars. The best time i have seen for a stock one for 100-150 in 3rd was 5.5sec. This car needs about 4.5sec! So i would say the car has about 290-300HP

I guess the guys at AVIS will be happy to hear that they have the worlds most powerful stock Saab 9-5 Aero ;) I doubt that they would do modifications to a rental car but they did warn me that the car had a "very powerful engine" when I picked up the keys.

Also, the video is unedited. The video was recorded using a Sony Digital Camera, copied to the computer and posted on YouTube. Unless Sony cameras are known to get their FPS wrong, I'd say you're mistaken, sorry.

i think its fast, top speed 250 km/h ?? 60-130 km/h on this car is faster than a porsche 911 turbo...it´s true!!!

[Granada28]

the 2.2 TID..? fast? LOL

[Saab2032]

@m3poower Cause any 911 owner will not run against a family sedan. And i to own a 9-5 Aero 40 - 70 MPH is faster then a 911 turbo.

GUYS, this is a manual, not auto, thus he's getting the 20s overboost function activated since he's under hard acceleration. This also explains why his arrow goes way into the red zone than you're used too.

the overboost function is only on the manual aero, extra 20+torque

[m3poower]

and that saab i chipped i see that on the turbo meter fucking noob!!!

[m3poower]

@svennenmatte iff its true, why can i not find a movie about 911vs saab aero ?? :S

[autodog221]

i drive an 01 95 and the fastest ive gotten it to is 115mph but i wasnt pinned at my rpms yet. The sport funtion makes a big differance when using it between 60-115 foro acceleration.

@raimond31

Looks fairly stock, not much of a tune as it only boost's mid red. My 900 is modified and pins the turbo on red and It is boosting around 18psi. So I would say this Aero is stock, or maybe minor things done to it, but nothing special.

[TurkishAerolines]

thklinge, your turbo needle goes way inside the redline. I have an auto and when it was not tuned, it wouldn't get that much in the red line. Probably it is the overboost function. Your 100-160 seems below 6 secs which is too fast for a standart spec.

i know this is a repeative question but which year is your car?

Usually work when you activate the washers, but only when lights are on.
