I have a C900 T16 (Aero?) She only boosts to between 60% and 75% of orange. I have been told that this is due to a faulty air mass meter, and that the engine is not getting enough fuel. (Bosch system) This was from a local respected saab specialist. I am not convinced. I am pretty sure I dont have any air leaks, and a replacement second hand APC hasn't solved the problem, although more boost is available in fifth at motorway speeds. Occasionally on startup theres a kind of "saxophone note" for about a second from somewhere forward of the drivers seat, but not always and I've never tracked it down. I would really appreciate ideas, as although the car still goes like the clappers, it is not as quick as it should be, particullarly from 30 to 60mph. Cheers Al
