Saab offers a diverse engine lineup — approximately 28% diesel and 72% petrol across 47 variants in our database. Both fuel types respond well to Stage 1 remapping, with turbocharged diesel engines typically delivering the largest gains in both power and torque.
Around 100% of Saab engines in our database feature forced induction, making them excellent candidates for remapping. Across the range, Stage 1 gains typically fall between 25 and 75 BHP (averaging 36 BHP) and 45 to 90 Nm of additional torque (averaging 63 Nm). These gains come from optimising boost pressure, fuelling, and ignition timing — all within the engine's mechanical tolerances.
With an average suitability score of 7.1/10, Saab engines are generally very well-suited to Stage 1 remapping. This means a professional remap can unlock meaningful performance gains while staying well within the engine and drivetrain's design limits.
A Stage 1 ECU remap optimises your Saab's factory software to unlock its full potential — no hardware changes required. Here are the typical gains across the range.
