First you should let us know your model so we know if you need a TD04 or a GT17. Aero models use the TD04, the Linear uses the GT17. I forget if the 3.0 uses a Garret but I think they do... Should you have a GT17 turbo car I cannot recommend enough to upgrade to the TD04. A MUCH more robust turbo than the GT. Swapping them is easy, bolt on with the only difference being the lines and you might need to swap your cobra pipe depending on model year of the TD04. Again, not necessary, but definitely recommended.

Do you know whats wrong with the turbo? I would first suggest a rebuild kit providing the housing is intact... You can get the parts and do it yourself for around 100-150 bucks. Add labor for removing and such obviously, but that would be the cheapest. Personally I'd check some junkyard in your area. As you are probably aware, Saabs are $$ to fix because parts are $$. Finding used or remanned parts is a serious win.

You could probably call Nick at GS and ask if he has any used ones kicking around for cheap. I don't trust many online retailers only because a lot of them are cheap Chinese manned turbos that go after 50k miles. Drives me nuts how many cars get back on the road only to start smoking 10k-20k down the road.

EDIT: Totally forgot. Check the forums for turbos for sale. Saablink, Saabcentral, Saabnet, and others. TD04s are popular sale items there. If you live in the Northeast I can give you a few of my favorite junkyards in the area. Might help you out.
