If you’re looking to give your Saab 9-5 a serious boost, check out the ETS intercooler. This bad boy is built with smooth-flowing cast tanks and a bar-and-plate core that’s designed for efficiency. We’re talking about a core that’s 100% vacuum brazed, meaning it’s tough as nails and ready to handle some serious heat. The external fins are louvered, and the internal fin pack is fine-tuned to maximize airflow. What does that mean? Every air molecule is working hard to cool down, which helps transfer heat away effectively. This design cranks out an impressive 82% efficiency rating. At 300 HP, you’ll only see a .75 psi drop—pretty solid for a performance upgrade.
Now, let’s get into the nitty-gritty. This intercooler has a flow rate of 1080 CFM, which means it can handle whatever boost your engine is throwing at it. Plus, it’s rated for 710 crank HP, so you know it’s built to last. And the best part? It fits right into the stock location without any hassle.
The construction quality is top-notch. That vacuum-brazed bar and plate core can take a beating from rocks and debris that would dent other intercoolers. The custom cast Aluminum 356 end tanks are shot peened, deburred, and TIG welded to the core for added durability. Each unit is visually inspected and pressure-tested to 35 psi before it leaves the shop, so you can trust it’ll perform when you need it.
Fitments:
So if you’re ready to take your Saab’s performance to the next level, this ETS intercooler is a solid choice. It’s built for the long haul and designed to give you the power and efficiency you’re looking for.
