You can use the databases on our website to see what we charge for the repairs. There is both a repair and parts section.
REPAIRS http://216.78.173.63/DATABASES/Web%20EST/default.htm
PARTS http://216.78.173.63/saab_parts_Folder/search.htm
A note on a 94 900 Convertible, if you are getting the transmission repaired, things like the service, turbo, head gasket, power steering, sway bar bushings, and tranny mount should be greatly reduced in labor as the labor functions are either included in the tranny removal or made much easier with the drivetrain out.
Best way to go with the turbo is with the factory rebuilt unit, they are what we recommend to our customers because of quality, low failure rates, and performance.
You might also look at the link below for a fix that might save reverse for you.

Your car is one of a few, if at all possible, I'd keep it and fix it. If you spend the $8k to get it in top condition, what could you buy for that to replace it and have a similar car with few worries of major future repairs?
Good Luck,
