Actually, in the U.S, DI came out in 1990, and Turbos were 2.0L DI with APC. In 1991 and 1992, Turbos were 2.3L with DI. > The APC-modules of the 900 and 9000 are NOT inter changeable. The DI APCs are not interchangeable with the pre-DI APCs, but I have personally (and very briefly) run a modified 900 APC in my 9000. Performance was definitely faster, but I could hear some audible knock at high-RPMs, probably due to insufficient fuel delivery. It was only an experiment anyway, so I pulled it out and replaced it with the stock APC box right away. -Doug
