Hi,
That depends on which GT28BB you are referring to. If you mean the one that is sold by e.g. Nordic and Speedparts, yes it fits. In terms of specifications it is more or less comparable to the GT28R sold by http://www.atpturbo.com. Garrett quotes it as capable of producing 310 hp. The setup usually used on 9-5/9-3 is to use a stock inlet pipe (cobra), which puts a limit on output to appr. 330-340 hp.
The larger GT28RS is more difficult to install, and requires some time in the garage. It is, however, possible.
Personally, I would strongly recommend a TD04HL-18T #6, which is 100% bolt-on, spools very quickly (hardly noticeable difference in spool on a 9-5 Aero, appr. 300 rpm) and handles around 330-340 hp, depending on what other beneficial mods have been done.
I run that turbo, but with the minutely larger 19T compressor wheel, on my 344 hp 2006 9-5 BioPower.
Best regards,
KK
