Default Modded Saab 9.3 kill

I was out cruisin today when I noticed a Saab 9.3 turbo pulling up next to me and staging. I heard him downshift and spool up with some poppin going on in his exhaust. It kind of reminds me when people have nitrous or something and it pops. The guy looks at me and the road we were on was a perfect straightaway. I downshifted into second, and let it roar a little so he could know I was about to go and then we were off. I went to the top of 2nd into 3rd before shutting down because there was a slight hill and I never speed over hills or around corners because cops love to camp out there. I pulled about a car length in front of him in that small amount of time. The saab seemed to be about as fast as a stock EVO. The reason I know this is because I always mess around with my friends EVO at work. It was definately faster than a stock Saab. I used to own a Saab turbo and it was a lot of fun. The guy gave the thumbs up and I waved and that was it. If I was stock, it probably would've been a tie. I wonder what he had in that thing.

Nice kill! You dont see modded Saabs that often (I don't anyway!)

The new Saab 92X is basically a WRX with different interior/exterior styling. Everything is the same aside from those things. A friend of mine has a modded 92X and put down just over 300whp with a relatively small VF22 turbo. Talk about a sleeper!!
