1.8 turbo 2006 9-3 bolt on 2001 2lt turbo?

Gregory,
Thank you for posting at TSN!
The 1.8 SAAB 9-3 turbo should employ the B207E engine which saw use of the GARRETT GT20 turbocharger, although this would not be compatible with the 2001 9-3. The 2001 model year 9-3 saw use of the GARRETT GT17 turbochargers for most base models, and the MITSUBISHI TD04HL-15T for the SE models.
The GT17 turbocharger may be replaced via a cartridge insert, which has been proven as the most cost effective method. Turbocharger cartridge replacements are the internal working section of any OEM turbocharger, and includes the rotating assembly, bearings, seals, bearing housing, etc.
Thanks again for your post, and please contact us with any additional questions!
Sincerely,
Gary K. at SWEDISH DYNAMICS, INC.
