Saab 9-3 intake???
Anybody here ever actually do a saab 9-3 intake manifold swap onto the 2.2 or 2.4 cars. I'd be interested to hear the outcome, did everything fit and work out ok? Would u need to retune for it?

I've done it on an LSJ. It should work fine for a 2.2 or 2.4 but IDK why you would want to. I don't think you will get any better flow than a 2.4 intake manifold.

the 2.4 intake should work just fine.. especially since if you have stock internals you wont be putting much boost to it

Also looks like it would flow better as well..

the saab mani has shorter runners, so on a 2.4 NA it would lead to a loss of torque right?

it might loose some on the low side but since its a short runner the top end would scream
