new to diagnosing and fixing Saabs. All of us were at once and we all ask questions all the time. It's how you get to be smart about some of this stuff.
Although there are other possible issues, I tend to bet on the DI based on your description. However, since it has been doing it for a while there could be multiple issues, one leading to another (cars are like that). For example, a DI that's only letting 2 plugs fire, for example (cuts your power by 50% or more), would also foul your cat and the O2 sensor. A failed or fouled O2 sensor can make a car run rough, but on its own probably not as badly as yours seems to be. But there are exceptions to everything.
FWIW, Saabs tend to run very smoothly. So when they don't, something is amiss and needs to be fixed to limit other troubles. True for most cars, really.
