So my first time back with the saab in god knows how long, and she starts doing something very odd.
When I floor the throttle, she goes through first gear fine, but once she hits second or above, some bad things start happening.
Thanks in advance.

When I floor the throttle, she goes through first gear fine, but once she hits second or above, some bad things start happening.
- At 4000 rpm almost on the dot, she starts making blowout noises from the exhaust.
- If I continue to give it gas, the blow outs become more frequent and violent.
- The car goes in and out of spurts of hard acceleration, but feels like its losing power.
- The boost seems to dance a bit, but it doesn't get totally dropped.
- The car will not go above 4500ish rpm unless i let off the throttle and gas it slowly.
- The power is definately still there, it just isn't getting used.
- Bad wastegate actuator.
- Clogged feul filter.
- Satan?
Thanks in advance.
