176,000 miles is young. I would suspect the fuel presure regulator vacuum lines being holy if the check engine light is not on. A blown turbo should make lots of noise, even at idle, and should produce tons of white smoke.

Take a look for a bad elbow near the #1 cylinder. A little electrical tape wrap will work temporarily for any vacuum leak.

1999 has coilovers, VVT, and ETM. All could contribute to running rich.

I wonder why it has 960 wheels?
