but nobody has actually ever produced the print outs.

Anyway, back to the thread subject - why not sell the Saab?

I took advice from Nick Maxted as to what his similar car produced with / without a balance VIS on dyno runs , I never asked for proof , but on my car ,with my induction kit / his exhaust system it definitely ran better with the balance VIS removed .This may not apply to other cars / induction / exhaust set ups.
With regards to selling the Saab , I had a 9-5 Aero before the ZS and they are amazing cars , the one I have just bought is from a friend who has owned it from new , serviced on the mark ,all the best oils etc , under half average mileage and way below market asking prices......a no brainer .The ZS was always going to be a daily drive/ track day tool , but I use a BRM for track days as well as an MX5 so it has to go I'm afraid.
