For my turbo build i might of found one.
The engine on this car is the B207L, is that the correct Exhaust manifold i can use?

 

yes u can use it...
the b207r and b207l had the same turbo manifold but u have to use the saab turbo to go along with it

 

now you can

here is what i said and what he said


ME:
if it is this engine
LK9 2.0T Ecotec

i need the Intake Manifold and Exhaust Manifold


HIM:
I believe the parts you need, and im only saying this because you capitalized the "T", are ones off of a 9-3 SS with an engine code of B207R. The engine on this car is the B207L.
Your going to need to confirm it thou...but i do have both mani's on this engine.

 

how much can i get out of that turbo?

 

i updated my post, also remember some of the saabs came with SAI, some didnt

they are getting ~200whp, 270wtrq outta 6psi over on the jbodies, but they are 2.2's, not 2.0's...

 

would i be able to get 350whp out of it on my car?

and can i use the oil lines from it?

u can use the oil lines from it fine, i dont think u couldget 350hp out of it, its a small turbo, i have pics, sec







take the turbo, the manifold, the oil lines, the cold charge pipe...u may be able to, but its a small turbo, ud be pushing well over 20psi...but who knows, i havent checked the saab forums in a while, u could try posting over on saabcentral and just ask if you can get 350hp out of your saab 9-3 b207r engine using stock turbo...see what they say

 

350whp ain't gonna happen with the stock saab turbo. I believe it uses a garrett flange, no reason you can't get a bigger turbo.

I stand corrected. That 3 bolt flange looks pretty wierd.

just bolt it on your ss/sc and twincharge it. That should net you 350whp.

 

the b207l used a garret low pressure turbo, the b207r used a MHI(mitsubishi heavy industries) high pressure turbo, althought they are both the same as far as bolt patterns, and fitment...

 

eh, like I said before, bolt it on and twincharge it. No reason not to get 350whp then. Just be sure to leave it compound boosted.

 

twincharge, can i keep my 2.8? or should i go to 3.0 or stock

 

Why not just buy the Vulcan log manifold or the ZZP one? Then you can have any freaking turbo your heart desires. I can see modding the intake manifold off the Saab, but not using that crappy turbo manifold. I think you need to set down and do some serious research before diving into this as it will save you time and money in the end.

 

yea i say go with a vulcan or jbp manifold. way better flow and they already have the flange for practically any turbo.

 

If you twincharge the way that ZZP does there kit. That little ass turbo would be useless

 

if you want to use a cheap factory turbo, ebay the evoiX turbo, there are a few cheap ones, than have vulcan make u a log mani w/that flange...i believe they are twinscroll turbos too...even a big16g turbo will get you the 350hp u want and have minimal turbo lag...and luckily the o2 hosuing is cheap on ebay aswell to that helped u make the downpipe alot easier, as u can use the turbo and o2 hosuing together...trust me, making a DP for a turbo that is internally gater is a lot easier when u can use the factory or aftermarket o2 hosuing :p
