Hi all, my newly bought '99 9-3 (just moved from a '95 900...) bucks hard under heavy acceleration. At around 4k rpm under load. Just replaced both the DI cassette (apparently one plug was firing intermittently), and the Turbo Solenoid... apparently there was too much boost, and the ecm was throttling back rather than damage the engine... Before it went to the mech's, the check engine light was on.. now, i have it back, and the check engine light is off, and it appears to run a bit smoother, but the hard buck still remains at higher rpms... Any ideas? I'm excited to get this turbo up and fully running.. the old 900 was a v6, and certainly didn't have this kind of kick... thanks everyone, -trip
