1990 SPG

Greetings from Edmonton, Canada.
After many years of searching and miss opportunities, I was finally able to purchase the Saab of my dreams, a black 1990 SPG...whaletail and all.
On my way home I noticed that it did not have the "punch" of our 1987 900 turbo....looking at the turbo boost gauge.., the needle hardly went pass the middle to the right...even though I floored the gas pedal a couple of times...., with the car safely inside the garage I started a careful inspection (I should have done this BEFORE I bought the car...didn't I ?)and couldn't find anything wrong in plain view.
Compression is 115-120 on all cylinders..., changed spark plugs, engine oil and filter, checked all connections, there are no leaks, air filter is clean and all hoses seem to be connected and in good condition....the engine runs smoothly but it seems that is all "plugged"...., am I overlooking something...?....any help...?....please...?....this time, my marriage is on the line.
I thank you all in advance......
