Learn all about it here at Bill's SAAB 9000 site:

You need to know the turbo you're running. It will have a plate on it detailing the precise model number.

If you're after some power to make that dump valve sing, then perhaps

0.4-0.5 bar would be nice and adjust your APC system to suit.

See ... The site is an amazing resource for APC tuning. Don't worry that it seems geared towards the 900, because the 9000 of the day shared similar APC boxes.

A good one? Pretty much any exhaust shop can make one, or buy in one "off the shelf" from a number of suppliers. Bear in mind that your turbo kicks out either a 40mm or 45mm trim, a 3" exhaust is a little excessive. Noisy, but excessive :)
