I've been lacking in getting pictures put up of the new mods. She's still out of commision due to another HG failure but that will be remedied this weekend. At which point I will finish the interior and update with those pictures.

Standard SAAB 900 TMIC install. I did have to relocate the ignitor and the cruise control unit. I will also have to do a remote clutch fluid resivour when I do my 5sp swap. See below for the coolant tank relocate. Incase anyone was every wondering, those cast numbs on the endtank are hollow and cutting on off will result in the need for a weld job...

Full engine bay shot. I've redone a lot of the hoses for both the PCV system and the coolant system. The coolant relocate went pretty easy and I still have a bit of finalizing to do on it. But it gets the job done.

That's my new 3" TBE. It's a little 'tunerish' but it sounds great. Considering I got a full 3" TBE (bellmouth) and the muffler for $190 shipped I'm pretty happy. I will get an under body shot soon to show which hangers I had to change and such. I do loose some clearance with the new exhaust but so far I think it'll be worth it.

Final picture posing with my OBW and also showing off the new rims. I'm really happy with them and they do look a bit better in person. They will look even better once I get them filled with brakes :).

What strut brace is that by the way?

The strut brace just has "Hairpin Racing" on it. I got it from a fellow board member and have no clue where he got it.

It's a pretty beefy strut bar and has zero slop. It is non-adjustable but it does make a very noticable difference when driving hard.
