Yes, stock hp is 135-145, but it came with a few mods that should push it to about 150. I'm not quite sure what your asking Mike, but yeah, they do have CIS and the turbo is not aftermarket, though it probably wouldn't be that challenging to put the setup into an N/A Saab. Yeah, I know the car is pretty chunky, but 2800 isnt terrible. It'll probably be pushing 2900lbs by the time the mods I want are in.
