I agree with TG, that oil will work well. The Saab engines really do need the best oil you can get. We have seen what happens with dyno oil and neglect. You have a young engine! Enjoy!
The Purolator PureOne is a better filter. Use Techron Concentrate every 8K or 2 times per year. Use only NGK BCPRES11's gapped to .035. Then let them erode open to .039 before bothering to regap.
Use premium fuel. The fuel filter should easily be good for 100Kmiles.
Lots of repair info on the NG900 BB, that fleet is older and ther is much more history there. Almost the same vehicle in many respects.
Correct battery electrolyte level 2 or 3 times per year.
