Fitted the Hirsch Grille over lunch. Reward for a 20hr dyno day Saturday.. 
Quite a pain to fit on the newer bumpers. Also a pic of the torque rod insert I have been running since I picked it up. Takes away some of the slop, improves the on off feel. Should have some of these for sale soon fitting XWD 6-speed v6. If you want one sooner just drop an email. Also fitted the Shifter mount kit. Always amazes me the reward for that cheap upgrade.
While in I threw it on the scales just to see… No more tacobell for this girl! 3788# with 1/2 tank of fuel. The auto combi must be tanks. No wonder the mileage is poor. Interesting to see the classic saab 60/40 front weight bias. Moving the battery to the trunk should help. That last one just shows a peek at what we are working on.
Very nice. I like your technology, like the scale you demonstrate. I just keep adding to my wish list!
Co-incidentally installing the Hirsch 3 piece grill(e) tomorrow. Along with some other bits and pieces…Maptun intercooler too (that was something to truck back from Sweden — hand luggage NOT!). Actually, I think my local garage has placed an order with you to get some silicone hoses in respect of and I hope they’re ready for tomorrow :).
Yes, the Sport Combi Auto is a Tank, but I still love her. Excited to see new parts coming to improve the car and make it even heavier!
I looked for a while before giving in and snagging this 4d. Now there have been a few.
Just going to need more go
Nick – formula for the the effect of moving that battery on center of gravity:
(component weight)*(move distance- inches)/(vehicle weight)
