APC was only fitted to Saab 8V 900's with turbo-equipped engines as far as I'm aware. The ones that didn't have turbo's (such as mine) don't have APC. I think APC was a standard part of the equipment for 900's with 16V engines regardless of whether they had a turbo or not, but I'm open to clarification.
