Well as stated below the exhaust arrangement is similar for all.
And any (turbo) motor might be prone.
The same exhaust configuration has been in place for all NG900 2.0 without sludge for the most part.
Generally, my observations have been the low pressure turbo's on the 2.3L (9-5 Linear) have faired worse than the HO 2.3L (Aero).
Aero shares the works with Viggen.
This may relate specifically to the crankcase venting.
An updated PCV to version 6 (!) removes one known source of trouble.
You might find a better sample of the Viggen motor by searching the Aero specific threads on 9-5 board.
As a matter of fact a 9-5 Aero wouldn't be a horrible choice either!
