thanks, i just bought a 92 900 turbo, it already has the larger intercooler pipes on it, then im putting my clamp on k&n filter on, then my mss catback exhaust, i bought that ebay apc kit and soldered the resisters in, 3.0 bar fpr, b+g springs and kyb gas-a just shocks, also i plan on getting a re-enforced back cover, and 2.1 head and intake any other suggestions?
north west nj, , i had a 1980 900 that came with the bilstein hd's and the lowered springs stock , it was part of the roadholding package, handled awesome, only thing with the bilsteins is that the lower a-arms started to crack around the lower shock mount, so we cured it by adding some weld re-enforcement behind the lower mount, and those shocks were good for 20+years!! right now tho being a starving mechanic i cannot afford the price of a nice set of hd's lol so i had to settle on kybs

+1 for good swedish iron
my last c900 died in a hit & run at 250,000 I striprd the car befor sending it to the junk man. all 4 cyl walls has cross hatch still clearly visible. If I had known the engine was that good I would have saved the whole enginge and not just the head.
