SAAB does offer ECU upgrades on some cars, though I'm not aware of the '99 9-3 SE auto being one of them. But it's worth asking the dealer. If they don't, probably the easiest thing to do is get an ECU upgrade from one of the reputable tunere - Nordic, Maptun or Abbott. Figure $500-800. I know Nordic in particular is sensitive to automatic transmissions. It may be possible to get the regular SE chip from a dealer, though I suspect they will tell you that your gearbox won't be able to handle it, which is not strictly true. I wouldn't go putting 300hp through an autobox, but an extra 20 should not hurt.
