2001 9-3 turbo question

Yesterday, my '99 9-3 5 speed was in the shop for service (and the broken heater distribution knob--the new unit works so well).
I was given a 2001 9-3 automatic as a loaner. Judging from the boost guage, it seemed like the turbo was able to spool up very quickly compared to my car, especially in the sport mode.
Does the 2001 car use a different turbo than my '99? Is it the engine management system (T-7?) that makes a difference? Or is does it have something to do with the auto. trans.?
Overall, I think I still prefer a stick, but I was very impressed with the automatic Saab. It was very responsive, except off the line. I was glad to see, however, that at 40,000 miles, my car seemed as tight as the 2001 model with 15,000 miles.
