My 99 9-5SE, 2.3lpt with 166,888 miles is in the shop getting its first turbo replacement (has been smoking a little since 80,000 miles and getting worse every day of late). Had two mods done to PCV (not the latest version) The difference in Mod 1 and Mod 2 was the difference in the size of the bore out of the hole. Master Tech recommended not doing Mod 3 (current mod) since all appeared well after headgasket replacement and Mod 2. Still feel good that turbo lasted this long.
