hahn racecraft for the intake manifold, and vulcan turbo for the manifold. you could also go to a saab dealer and get one of the 2.0l intake manifolds they use on the 2.0l turbo model 9-3. it will save quite a bit of your budget.

sure but you got less than 6 weeks, i can also refer you to someone who can help you out as well. i have never seen one of these builds go that fast though. waiting for parts takes forever.

well let me know. take some serious time to plan everything you buy, and exactly how you want it set up.

look on the FS section for parts forsale because they need money. A guy down here got all his parts from ebay and I am pretty sure he spent less than $2000 on parts. I am think he said less then $1200 but I could be wrong.

This is the guy. I think it is actually 350 fwhp on stock internals 60-1 turbo(I dont know turbos so I cant answer any questions). He is building it now snd shouild be done today.
