Logically it has to take longer for the turbo to build up the required pressure if the air pressure is as low as it is at 5000 feet. > and the instant > fallback to "zero" on the turbo gauge? Yes. The gauge shows air mass that enters the cylinders, so if the throttle closes the air no longer enters the cylinders and the air mass instantly falls. The gauges in older Saabs shows turbo pressure (on the input side of the throttle) and would show a "slowly" falling turbo pressure when the throttle closes. > Heh. I'm not *in* the mountains.

I doubt we have any road suitable for a 9-5 Aero at 5000 feet. -- G–ran Larsson http://www.nospam.com
