        It's not THAT loud.
        Did you get to go for a ride in it? I think I finally used up most of the #!#!#!#!ty old gas, and I can start adapting up to higher-boost and power. It's been a busy week, wrapping up the car, and packing to move to MD.

        I took some time and washed the car/straightened out the engine bay tonight, and I LOVE it. It drives straight, thanks to new tie rod end Rob threw on, and an alignment from Sears, and tomorrow it goes in for new tires.

        I didn't realize how much I missed this thing until I sat back down in it. It's such a tease to have the tiny 15t spool up real quick, and then have to back off just-as-quick.
        I can't wait to have fresh gas in it, and be able to have some fun!

        Oh! I stopped on my way home, and got the ECU re-flashed. It now has the rear O2 CEL deleted, and got rid of an annoying "hang" of the RPMs that saab puts in the ECU to make high-RPM shifting easier. The only thing left is going to be some tint on 'er.
        Then... I'm dooooone!!!

            Here it is, all neatened up.
            Cellphone picture, but you get the idea.

            It'd be nice to get the misc hoses and wires gone, but there's just soooo many, I don't know where to start!
