Normally Aspirated

My Saab experience is limited -- The 99 Turbo we bought new in 1978, the
'82 900T we picked up when Sara rolled the first car in '89, then the
identical gray 1978 99Turbo we found a few months later. But it seems to
me that most of the problems we've had are associated with the car being a
Turbo. Exhaust manifolds crack, turbos fail, high underhood temperatures
and 'hot' ignition use up plug wires, turbos beat their stellite valve
seats into the head, etc.

Does it seem to those who have had more Saabs that the normally aspirated
cars have fewer headaches?
