Performance as figures are

100-200 7-7.5s.
120-240 ~11s.

In other words this car flyes

All I have to say is ...

HOLY

!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dubbya~

Yes it seems very quick, however, changing from 4th to 5th at the redline at 250kph, how long is the car geared ?

 

[ylee coyote]

looks like an normal aero....
(very long geared !!)

 

[andycannon]

My 97 CSE has the same gear box/ratios as an AERO, but, I dont reckon I would be doing 140mph+ when changing up to 5th, from memory its somewhere around 120mph on changing up

 

[philcrombie]

I think he is 'reving the nuts off it' (technically speaking of course)

Just under 7k rpm by the looks of things

 

[mark e]

Definitely normal gearing for a 2.3FPT/Aero I reckon... I'm pretty sure I wasn't getting into 5th despite reaching over 135mph last time I was at Goodwood

Flippin' heck - Saabine's fifth runs out at about 134 mph. And that's when on new tyres

[edit] Mind you, it makes for brutal acceleration through the gears .[/edit]

7k on a saab engine ...unthinkable !!

actually I was using 6.9k at the recent track day no probs...

 

[Scotty Mc]

Looks like a LPT to me as there is no standard turbo gauge. Just a thought.......

 

[Vigge]

its a 2.0 LPT as base.

The Hillclimb car manages 9,000+ rpm ... it has to get to 8K just to reach it's power peak!

 

[ylee coyote]

sorry adrian I was being ironic...
there is feeling that saab engines cannot rev..
but I for one know that they can...
I was taking mine to 7k and beyond (having so much fun) and the engine was not strained at all
hummed like a sewing machine and used no oil
the limiter started to come in around 7.5k as far as I remember
I can recommend getting your engine dynamically balanced !!
