  1. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Hey all First time posting ! Bought my Saab 9-3 V6 2007 last year and absolutely loving it. I'm curious though. Thinking about doing a stage 1 and new exhaust. Any recommendations on what I should I do and what I should buy? The drive is perfect and I've had no problems so don't want to mod...
  2. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    I have the aforementioned Saab and I was thinking of changing something on the exhaust to spice it up a little. Keeping the original in my garage. I don't have access to a ramp at the moment to look at the underside, I'm hoping to get to one in the coming weeks. I'd like to see how do-able...
  3. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Hello, I'm having issues with my car going into "Limited performance" mode sometimes when I step on the gas (For instance, when I'm trying to drive off quickly & more commonly, when I'm on the highway & I suddenly step on the gas to go even faster or to go uphill) I assume this issue is...
  4. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Was wondering if anyone knows if the exhaust routing is the same for the 1.8i and the 1.8t and 2.0t? From what I can tell, the turbo versions have a wider diameter exhaust but I can't work out if they are routed the same way. Different diameters shouldn't be a huge problem. The inference here...
  5. NG900 & OG9-3 Workshop
    I feel like my days of playing superhero novice mechanic are dwindling. My '97 900SE has now begun its 3rd spring/summer with me. All has been well aside from replacing the starter and fixing the parking brake to pass inspection. Next on the agenda was the increasing number of exhaust leaks. I...

    I've got a 2002 9-5 Aero and the flex joint between the two cat converters is shot. Seems like the OEM diameter for exhaust is 60mm or 2 3/8" (I've also heard that 2 1/2" diameter can work). Length for the flex joint is 3". What brand should I use for a high-quality replacement?
  7. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Hello, i’ve installed a 3 inch careless down pipe, and 3 inch mid pipe to my 2006 Saab 9-3 aero with the V6. I was wondering if anyone knows where i could find the axle back exhaust for it, including the y and the mufflers. Or will I have to fabricate that myself? Thank you.

  9. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Does anybody know if the flex pipe without the cat (a replacement) can be installed on a 93 2.0T XWD to replace one that aparently has a cat on it? I haven't fully gone under the car to look, but looking from the side, it obviously has a cat behind it. Catalogs say direct fit, so I suppose...

    I'd like to upgrade my 2007 9-3 Aero (2.8T) convertible with a nice used or old-stock Hirsch dual exhaust system. Ideally I'm looking for the original asymmetrical system (left muffler bigger than right muffler) with 2.75" main pipe and a deep bend to fit around the bigger 61L fuel tank. But...

  12. 9-5 Workshop
    I have trouble figuring out the diameter of the exhaust pipe. It’s a 9-5 ‘06 2.0t. People say 2.5” and 2.25”, it’s especially the part after the resonator that is important to me since I’m planning on doing a full 3” but imma keep the resonator to not wake up the neighborhood. I Measure the pipe...
  13. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Upon recently creating a hole in my muffler I decided to just cut it off to see the sound. It sounds great, but it has some intense drone while I'm around 2500 rpm. Currently, I have a loose tailpipe cut behind my bumper. I originally planned on just putting a straight pipe to the bumper and...

  16. 9-3 Sedan, Cabrio '04+, Combi, 9-3X Workshop
    Oddly enough, the only ignition problems happens when the engine has been running, and is started back up. On a cold start, it turns over no problem. When the engine is warm, it will crank, and try to turn over, but stalls out and stops. I can audibly hear when it is not gonna work as the engine...
