As Larry said, this is not about the power steering pump. I think you misinterpreted Simon's comment about it being the power braking system. Instead, it is the ABS accumulator pump. I had one of these go out on my '91 9000 Turbo a few years ago. The brake pedal becomes stiff, just as you described. The pump resides beneath the brake fluid reservoir. I got a used one from someone on Saabnet who was parting out a '91 9000 and had it installed at the dealership. A 1992 model would have the same part, but I don't know about other years. You probably can't get a new one, even if you wanted to pay an arm and a leg.
