Good going so far, man.

I love SAABs. I learned in a 1970 96, four on the tree and a length of twine holding the glitchy freewheel handle out. It got 40mpg back in the day, damned good - pretty good even now.

Interested to see how it plays out. I know having the instant grin factor of the turbo is an attractive temptation, knowing there's what amounts to four extra cylinders just waiting a little deeper into the pedal travel. That's hard to resist.
