The two engines do have a different ECU. The NA cars use a Bosch Motronic system, I guess its widely used on European cars. The Turbo cars use SAABs own Trionic engine management, which is very good. I did post a thread about this once with little and superficial response. My car is pretty well maintained. I keep the oil fresh, fuel system clean and the air supplies clear. What is going on with my car is almost like the opposite of acquired octane needs. I have even reset the ECU a few times with no change in the car. It something that I have been living with, its hard paying .25$/gallon less than I was with premium.
