2005 9-3 2.0t turbo swap?

[lowrider_rt2000]

Hello everyone!
I am looking to do some upgrades. I read that the small "t" on my car means I have the smaller Garret turbo and what all goes with it. My question is, can I install and bolt up the bigger Mitsubishi turbo on my car? I tried searching on here but couldn't find anything. Thank you in advance.

Seems doing saying low pressure and you know in life the size doesn't matters

You certainly can, however there are stipulations. You will also need all hard plumbing lines for coolant and oil. You may also need to grind off a piece of the new turbo housing to get around the stabilizer bolt. You will also need to get the green top injectors and a standard Aero tune or better - which would be a good time to go to Stage 1 or 2. I just did this on a buddy's car and I'm working on making a video about it, of everything that got recorded anyway, lol.

Ahh OK! There's a wrecked Aero with the big "T" on the deck lid near me and I was looking to maybe use that car as my donor. I'm getting custom side exit exhaust put on my car next week and a Stage 1 or maybe stage 2 tune done when I get my new to me turbo. I have a new clutch ordered too. I know nothing about my Saab or Saabs in general lol. The car was literally given to me. This forum has been a lot of great knowledge for me too!

Side exit exhaust finished. It wasn't too bad of a job to tackle either. I'll get more pics. This was a quickie before the rain came.
