In-depth motor questions

Hi everyone.
It's been a long time since I posted here; I had to sell my 86 900T 2dr 5sp when the main oil seal burst and coated my engine compartment with oil....anyway I bought a junker BMW about 4 months after the Saab incedent.
so, a bunch of guys on the BMW board have been asking about turbo add-ons. Some said that the BMW eta engine's would not work very well due to the design (flat headed pistons, and mostly flat head and something about compression). BUT I thought the amazing saab 2.0 engines had flat pistons etc... also.
So, who is right?
Also, could I modify a Saab turbo to work on my BMW engine? it's a 2.5L straight six...etc...? cheaply?
Thanks guys!
P.S.- I wish I had another 900T....they could so kick MY bmw's ASS....and have torque to boot. :-) doesn't help that I blew the bmw's transmission :-(
also; feel free to email me with an answer :-) thanks again
