pull off the center hose to the BPC valve with the owner's approval and go for a short test drive. Go to an empty stretch of road, give the car gas in 2nd gear and glance at the boost gauge when you gently floor the gas. Back off immediately if the gauge goes into red or you would hit fuel cutoff.
If boost goes into red with this test, you can assure yourself that the turbo is working fine just some of the controlling mechanism isn't. Check a lost clip on the wastegate actuator, BPC solenoid, vacuum leak etc.
Take the car to a reputable Saab mechanic and check the car out and negotiate a better price.
