Not for that model. I sold 1 last year to a polaris side-by-side owner. First time in 3 years. You'll more than likely pay retail, and wait 3 weeks unless in stock.

You're probably best off cruising some newer Saab forums. I forget which models you want to target, but a few use a GT15. The turbine inlet is the size of a half-dollar.

i dont know yet... im going to start small, see how tuning goes, how it likes pump gas etc. the engine only makes about 100hp stock so im thinking 130 to start off with. one of the downsides to this motor is parts. no one makes anything for it. if i calculated everything right, boost should come on before 3k and full boost by 4k. (please correct me if im wrong here)

why are you only reving the bike to 9.5k

usually bikes should rev out to 13K-15K. also at those rates detonation shouldnt be an issue because of piston size and flame front burning rates. i think you should start with a T25 if you can get it on there
