I'm pretty sure APC was integrated into the ECU. There was a model in 1988 called the CD which had the DI ECU and APC as separate boxes. I think that was the only year/model though. Can someone else confirm? > 2) Would its engine fit a Saab 900 16v car? Would it be any improvement > in doing that? The head will fit into a C900. There's no benefit, really, unless it's the 2.3 head. Quite a common swap and with the right injectors, good for approaching 300 BHP. The direct ignition setup is also good to graft onto an C900. Take a look at these walkthroughs: <http://www.uknospam/viewtopic.php?t=1529> <http://www.nospam/main/diy_main_di.htm> Paul 1989 900 Turbo S http://saab.go.dyndns.org/
