No Saab that I know of ever has a tb0363. The only car I do know that ever used that one is an 83-86 Volvo 700 2.3L

I'd start searching volvo boards/sites to find out what the stock psi was.

If its the adjustable one its set a 4.You can raise it up to 10 if you want by putting tension on the arm.

If your wastegate is like this one turn the arm till you have to pull it out of the wastegate to put it on the flapper.That will raise the boost.
