I say well its an LPT ... they say again >"is it the turbo"... >... or they say "is it injected" .. Here are the specs for the US 1996 9000 Saab. It looks like the US CS/CSE is the same as the Euro CD/CDE. http://www.saabnet.com/tsn/models/1996/9000sel.html In that case, you've got the LPT turbo. The CDE has the full turbo. You've got fuel injection. The LPT = Light Pressure Turbo. It's always on, sort of like variable power steering. lauraknospamousergraphics.com http://www.madmousergraphics.com web design, print design, photography
