It might be your turbo...I was comming back from my summer holidays driving my old 1997 900 and when it was time to pass or go up a hill,well I had no power at all...My saab doctor took a look and the problem was situated were two pieces of the turbo are attached to each other with a simple clip made of something that seems to be copper but is certainelly not(harder).Have a look,if that's not it...Well,it might cost you a turbo...Good luck hope this helps!
