Quote from information page for the car: "Garrett turbocharger with intercooler (3.0 bar or 42.8 psi)"

Saab has a lot of experience with turbocharging (they have had turbo cars constantly in production since the 70's) so i'm now surprised. If you build up the engine properly those numbers are obtainable.
used to have one... but i gave up on it.

Nowadays, all their cars are turbocharged. The entry-level 93 has a 2.0 litre low pressure turbo.
I'm confused now...I NEED the Hamann E65 V12.

Not surprised. Strong Saab block and proffesional engineers!
In the late 80Žs the F1: s crammed 1000-1200hp out of 1500cc. For example BMW made this on their standard block from their 1800cc block if im not dreaming too much!
The key is cooling to make engine last!

Stop refering this car to SAAB, they didin't build that engine. It was Trollspeed. And yes SAAB has experience but still they didin't built that engine or the car.
