I would normally agree that dino oil should be fine, and it probably is, but you'd want 3000 mile intervals at the longest with that.
However, Saab is quite specific about synthetic oil in their specifications. There is probably more to the equation than turbo cooling/coking considerations, so I wouldn't want to chance it personally.
