I have a Saab 95 2.0 station car from year 2000. when i bought her, the turbo had been changed! The former owner sent off for the standard low pressure turbo, instead he got an aero turbo. He went to a saab workshop an asked if it could be fitted without causing any problems, so the workshop planted the aero turbe and programmed a new chip so that the turbo would work ok. So instead of 150bhp she now had around 180bhp. MY big question is, what would happen if I was to fill her up with octane 99 or shell vpower?? I was told that it´s good to fill up with a higher octane say once a year to help CLEAN the engine????? Is this a load of crap talk or???

First welcome to Saabcentral!!!

Yeah the Shell V=power has some good additives keeps your injectors clean but you can just use Techron additive ( if its available ether) and your car will run better on higher octane, you ussually wil see better gas milage that makes up for the increase in cost.
