I will say this as a non-TBSS owner I do not want an envoy denali section on this site. Granted the 2009 saab came with the 6.0L and I have a lowly 5.3 but other than that not much other than a diff body and interior. What would be interesting to have maybe is a thread started so you guys can at least have a list of existing members who own or have owned one. Just my opinion.
EDIT: I know you guys have upgraded transmissions and diff gears to boot.

Hey, I took mine to the Carlisle Import and Kit Car Nationals in 2009 (normally go every year in one of the classic turbo's I have): Of the roughly 200 Saabs, the 9-7X took best in class....
...in a class of 1....

I pretty much find everything I need for info on my Saab, in the regular TBSS sections.
You would not believe how many people come up to me and ask " what the hell does that thing have for a motor? "after I rumble past.

Yep. Me, too. Even the dealer service manager who works on my GTO (still under warranty) had no clue. I love it!

My plates are confusing, "turbwho", makes people think it has a turbo and im trying to hide it lol I dont like turbos, the name "turbo" reminds me of those big red buttons on arcade machines back in the day

Very nice! Now if I could only get the truck out of my wife's hands for a few days....
Hey, Dirty, I noticed you replaced the gauge cluster with a TBSS. Never did understand why the Saab's speedometer was limited at 120 mph. What's the limit on the TBSS speedo, and how difficult to recalibrate?

140 mph and 8k rpm on the TB SS cluster. I took it to a guy that works at a GM dealership and he installed and programed it for about $40 i think. the mileage didn't switch over tho but the gauge cluster came with a decal that the tech guy signs and then goes on the door.
