Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

3.4-liter V8 and It retains the Prius' Hybrid Synergy Drive system.

what you do is you order a Prius and have it wrapped in the same livery as that car and daily it like that :P

 

The ECU works great btw. idk if you saw my horrible soldering a couple pages back but i did it. Drove on it to work this morning. It's wonderful!

I want something I can tow with. I'd be happy with a 5.3, but I want the 6.0

 

390HP stock SUV that has a super nice interior, and can haul a car

 

Basically I will have 3 Saabs, my 9-5, a 9-7X with at least a 5.3, and a 9-2X (Saaburu)

i'd have V70R or 9-5 aero wagon as a daily, probably a Touareg with a V6 TDI for towing, i doubt i'd get the older V10 TDI one xD and then some kind of track toy or fun car ... dunno what

the 9-2X / 9-7X would be winter cars due to AWD, 9-7X when it's super bad and icey out, 9-2X for some Subaru fun in the snow :D
