It appears to be saying there were only two manual transmissions fitted to the 9000, and doesn't distuinguish between turbo and non-turbo.
I don't know if this is the whole story since I wouldn't necessarily expect Haynes to mention "specials".
I first noticed this when I changed my '90 CD 2.3T for the '96 Aero. It took a bit of getting used to - not being able to drive around town in 4th gear. I do know that a colleague replaced his wife's 1992 2.3 non-turbo with a 1997 2.0LPT and she thought it was more sluggish until I pointed out the change in transmission in 1994. Now she knows to change gear earlier, she is once again a menace to other traffic.
