"Born from Jets"—now flying faster. Saab built a legacy on aviation-inspired engineering and turbocharging mastery. However, whether you are preserving a classic 900 Turbo, cruising in a 9-5 Aero, or enjoying the agility of a 9-3 Sport Sedan, factory ECU maps often restrict your engine's true output. The GTE Stage 1 Performance Chip connects directly to your OBDII port to unlock the hidden potential of your Saab, optimizing air/fuel ratios and boost timing for a drive that honors the brand's unique heritage.
Unleash the Turbo Potential
Saab drivers know the joy of a well-spooled turbo, but modern electronics and aging sensors can introduce frustrating lag. Our advanced OBD-2 technology sharpens your throttle signal and optimizes engine management to virtually eliminate that hesitation. It restores the "kick" you expect from a Saab engine, delivering smoother power delivery and enhanced responsiveness. It is 100% Plug-n-Play and completely reversible, making it the perfect upgrade for keeping your Swedish icon running at its peak.
Zero Cutting Required: Installs in under 5 minutes via the factory OBDII port.
Factory Safe: Does not permanently overwrite your ECU or risk delicate electronics. Simply unplug it to return to stock settings instantly.
Lifetime Warranty: We keep your Saab on the road with a full lifetime guarantee on our module.
Proven Performance Gains
Get the most out of your H-Engine or Turbo V6. The GTE Stage 1 Chip delivers tangible improvements tailored for the enthusiast:
Increase Horsepower: Unlock up to +20 HP for stronger mid-range pulls and highway passing power.
Boost Torque: Gain up to +19.1 ft·lbs of torque—essential for that signature surge of Saab acceleration.
Sharpen Throttle Response: Improve pedal sensitivity by up to 50%, reducing turbo lag for a more direct connection to the road.
Faster Acceleration: Achieve quicker 0-60 times and more responsive overtaking capability.
Maximize Fuel Economy: Optimize engine efficiency to gain up to +4 MPG, perfect for long-distance touring.

1996 SAAB 900 2.0 Turbo
Seems to work
Overall the engine runs a bit better.
I'd say it boosted it by 5 to 10%. MPG stays around the same. My car has over 260k.
I didn't provide 5 stars cause the performance increase isn't obvious.
