According to my Electronic Parts Catalog, you have a turbo from a 1988 c900; it is not explicit, but the EPC implies it's an early 88, so, yes, pre-water-cooled.
My guess is that the prior owner had to clock it for his particular application, e.g., if he had it on a transverse-oriented engine with exhaust manifold at the front of the car, I think he'd have to do that...
Anyway, now that you know what you've got, you just have to clock it. Hopefully, you found some good info via Google??
Oh, BTW, my mechanic said to use only Saab steel gaskets at the manifold/turbo; the thicker aftermarket stuff burns out quick and is junk. You can prolly re-use your current one.
