Yes it is very similar and Abbott Racing makes a chip to boost Turbo pressure and create more power and torque (I forget the stats). I have driven a chipped 9-3 and it is quite fast, probably faster than the 9-3 SE. I have a 2000 9-3 SE and just love the engine, lots of torque, no problems with driveability.
