Well, as we don't have an idea how your directory structure looks like, we can't tell how many files will be found below that starting dir. You may want to add the -prune action. Also, the -mtime +2 (older than now - (48h+)) is depending on the time you issue the command; it will yield different results on Monday or on Tuesday, and if issued at 10:00h in the morning or later at night.
The grep will grep filenames sa1 till sa9, but not sa10, sa15, or sa17. Use [1-9][1-9] for a two digit wildcard.
And, finally, you read filenames in the while loop, but you don't use them as a parameter for your sar.sh script; unless you are using the f variable in the script, all the filename a thrown to the bin, making the earlier commands redundant.

ZGREP(1) General Commands Manual ZGREP(1)
NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code:
(-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the
standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep.
If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked.
EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified.
