Saab has made it easy on themself if you buy a brand new one, "almost" all part numbers has been superseded to 7599194 and that radiator fits many different models both auto and stick shift, turbo/non turbo.
That radiator is what I call the shorter one. The core is 20" long between plastic tanks.
But they do have another radiator that was also installed between 86 and 90 in the turbo, automatic with A/C.
That one has a partnumber of 7550098. The length of the core between tanks are 22".
So if you are looking at used radiators and they have the original one installed, it is even a lot more different ones out there and you need to go with the turbo, automatic with the right lenght.
The factory installed radiator for a stick shift came without the transmission oil cooler so that is not an option for you.
The non turbo radiator from factory had lesser rows of cooling channels so that might not be good since you have a turbo.
So the first choice you listed (88 non turbo) I wouldn't recommend if it is the original one installed from factory. If it has been replaced at some point and time I guess you might be able to use it since it is multi function one.
Hope this helps
Anders
