Running Turbo engine without Turbo?

I own a badly overheating Saab 900i, 1987, 98,000 mls, RHD. Is running really hot and not driveable uphill or in city traffic. Temp gauge needle will reach the red line very fast. I spent more than GBP 850.00 fixing the problem - still existing! I can get hands on a 1989 Saab Turbo with broken Turbo and badly rusted. Mileage is 123,500kms. Car is Manual and LHD. Is there a way converting the engine to Auto transmission and will the LHD engine fit into a RHD car? AND can I run the 16V without the Turbo? Replacing the Turbo is very expensive and I spent too much solving the overheating on my 1987 Saab 900i. I can't afford buying a new Turbo and a new exhaust. Non Turbo exhaust won't fit... Must be fitted into a 1987 Saab 900i, Auto, RHD. Any suggestions?
