They can be had from earlier (00-02) Saab's (petrol)

On my GT17 the hot side is .47 / cold side is .53.

Again all depends on spec. Say your running one bar of boost you would not wish to gear it down at all. If you got the gearing correct well over 150mph is easily possible. The old DP car running 1.1 bar hit 160mph before it ran out of gears. These are terrible cars to run at these speeds though even on a 2 and a half mile long airfield that is wider that a football fields you really are taking your life in your hands.
