Title: SAAB engine code B230R Post by: Lost on July 14, 2014, 12:48:11 AM I got a friend with Saab 2.3T
The car is on original tune. Is there any stage 1 tunes for these cars? Any knowledge at all? Have not found anything on this forum btw. Anything would be of help, thanx!!! Title: Re: SAAB engine code B230R Post by: technic on July 14, 2014, 01:11:52 AM Have you googled at all? ;)
http://socalsaab.com/suites/suites.htm These Trionics are much simpler than any Bosch ECU, for better or worse. Title: Re: SAAB engine code B230R Post by: sweegie on July 14, 2014, 03:57:04 AM I've done a lot of work on Saab engines, but dont recognise that engine code! What car and year is it from? I know the B204 and B234 well...

I belive it is SAAB 95 2001 2.3T 250bhp version Title: Re: SAAB engine code B230R Post by: sweegie on July 14, 2014, 10:01:53 AM I belive it is SAAB 95 2001 2.3T 250bhp version That should be a B235R engine in that car, with the TD04 turbo. They run quite close to the limits out the box, but I've mapped a couple. I'd have to dig pretty deep to root out anything for that engine, but you might want to check out ecuproject.com... There's much good information over there for these ;) Title: Re: SAAB engine code B230R Post by: dayofthejackal on July 14, 2014, 11:55:02 AM Here's my tunes. Only got the stage 2+ on the dyno but logged the other 2.

Thanx a bunch man. As this is not Me7, can these be flashed in with nef software or MMPS as we do on our Audis, or is there some other soft and procedure. Title: Re: SAAB engine code B230R Post by: technic on July 16, 2014, 10:05:34 AM MPPS can do them just fine. Be aware of VIN and VSS number.
Title: Re: SAAB engine code B230R Post by: Lost on July 16, 2014, 01:22:53 PM MPPS can do them just fine. Be aware of VIN and VSS number. Meaning? I see those numbers using vcds. What do I do with them? What has to be done here to get it right? Title: Re: SAAB engine code B230R Post by: technic on July 16, 2014, 01:29:22 PM ...meaning you cannot program these files "as is" into the ECU, car won't start. You need to put in your own numbers into the file (and recalculate checksum)
Title: Re: SAAB engine code B230R Post by: sweegie on July 16, 2014, 04:58:33 PM Yes indeed - T7Suite is your friend here... Use it along with MPPS to extract the VIN / VSS information from your existing binary, then graft it into the attached bins and flash.
