Hard Brakes, Replaced Booster No Luck

Hey guys,
I really need a little help. I have a Saab 900CS, Automatic, Non Turbo. Somebody cut in front of my daughter when she was driving it. She hit the brakes pretty hard and now they are somewhat less than manual brakes. I took it to a Saab mechanic who is suppose to be pretty good who diagnosed the problem as the Power Break Booster. I ordered a new part from Eeuroparts (a genuine Saab part at around $800) and the mechanic put it in. NO LUCK!!! The problem was still there. Took it to the Saab dealer who suggested the part we got was defective. The dealer replaced the part under warranty and I had the same mechanic put it in. Still no fix. Back to the Saab dealer who got in touch with Saab engineering. They diagnosed the problem now as the Brake Hydraulic Valve Assembly, Saab P/N 4198446 at $1722.
I'm stuck now. I have too much into the car to sell it, and really can't justify putting another $2000 into it to replace the Brake Hydraulic Valve Assembly. Does anybody have any ideas?? Is there a way to confirm the diagnosis?? Is there any way to get one of these parts remanufactured or used and if so, where?? Just looking for help here.
Thanks in advance.
Gary
