If it's front wheel drive, i think it's a t25. If it's a RWD saab it should hav a 42/48 T3 on it I think. I don't really know the saab models/turbos too well.

WTF is a RWD Saab haha? I'm pretty sure the 94+ Saabs used the GT17 which is miniature. The 93 and earlier used a variety of turbos, but yeah some used a .48/.42 T3 and even a Mitsubishi 12A on some of them I think 90-93 used the Mitsu turbo.

Oh ---- good point. I forgot they are all FWD, but the old-school ones had the engine mounted longitudinally, like a RWD car would have the engine mounted.
