Re: Are 9-5 1999's Good Cars

Saab had two engines that was not inline 4:s, they were an assymetric turbocharged V6 and a diesel V6, both were 3 litres. The gasoline V6 engine was based on an engine from Opel and was later replaced by an inline 4.

From 2001 the 2.3 litre inline fours are all identical when it comes to the hardware except the turbochargers so they are easy to upgrade to an Aero (the Aero has however bigger brakes, a better clutch, the sport chassi kit and some spoilers). There is also a 2.0 litre inline four, this engine was however not sold on all markets, Saab has also a tuning kit for this engine that increases the output from 150 hp to 192 hp.
