Make no mistake...the ss/sc was the sum of all of GM parts. Meaning it was made from available parts in the "GM global parts bin" by the performance division for the redline. The lnf would be the refinement (solstice and sky redline) and the t/c would be the culmination of the refinement.
Saabs have always had turbos (gm's "eurotrash" division) in their forced induction cars whereas a turbo in a chevy is sort of patriotic suicide, hence their reluctance to use one in the first place. Of course there was the GNX and the Omni but despite their performance not really successful.

this is why i said the LK9 was turboed...i believe thats the engine code of the ecotec in the saabs, and the LNF being the turbo ecotec in the new balts, HHR SS, saturn sky, solsitce, etc

well...the ecotec 2.0. But the lsj is a configuration for the supercharged ecotec.

the ECOTEC was turbocharged in the saabs the saab 9-3 specifically... but it is not an LSJ. the LSJ is specifically the ecotec /w eaton m62 in redlines and cobalts

the reason GM went with a supercharger in the LSJ is because of emissions reasons actually. it was a lot harder to make a turbo pass the new emissions requirements, but direct injection helped overcome this obstacle in the LNF

Does anybody know how to fix my problem?>
At 4k my MAF sensor reaches 10,000 hz and throws the car into an alternate map and my power goes by, by?
I'll be well above 300whp once I can figure out how to fix the issue!!
Please help, if anyone has had this issue let me know!

sick little saturn. But he isn't using really small pullies and his IAT's are still a bit high, but that's what you get when you have no intercooling. I know he said he added WI, but that's still gonna get some high IAT's after a few pulls. Sick little car though.
