hi
the 'waste gate' is the first of two protections for the engine (to keep ot from getting too much turb boost pressure). If it is not operating correctly, you can feel the secondary protection-- the fuel cut off-- in action when too much boost is about to reach the engine (e.g., when accelerating hard). This is a very abrupt transition from acceleration to reduced engine output. I suppose the SAAB system is fairly sophisticated, so that power will continue, but at a lower level after the intial cut back.
we have felt this in our volvo, when we disblaed the waste gate ;-)
