need help with Saab 9000 oil/water cooled turbo Install

OK here's the deal...a friend of mine has a 1986 Saab 9000 turbo 2.0L and the turbo burned up and was smoking badly. So he found a used replacement on ebay from the same year car and asked if it was oil cooled like his and they told him it was. So he bought it and had it shipped. Cool right? So he thought....when he got the replacement turbo in the mail today and looked at it, it is a oil & water cooled model. He needs to get this car back on the road A.S.A.P. and wants to know if there is any way to make this oil/water cooled turbo work on his oil cooled car? Any ideas? Neither one of us know much about saab's or turbos for that matter, but we're pretty fair back yard mechanics. Has anyone dealt with this situation? Or if you are a Saab turbo whiz please give us some advice. thanks
