So buying one, doing a P/P job and installing it wouldnt add any HP to an N/A 2.2??? I figured you would see gains that way...

Only way to tell for sure would be to dyno a stocker then install a P/P Saab intake and dyno again to see the difference.

Long intake runners tend to provide higher RPM breathing (like a single plane tunnel ram V8 intake manifold) whereas short runners tend to provide lower RPM performance (like a dual plane V8 manifold). Theory is that this would be the same on our 2.2s. It could be that you would have a little more low end torque but you could lose some top end HP.
