My 89 turbo 8 valves registration number is : YS3AD35S7K7XXXXXX. Somebody in a Saab Shop in France show me on official Saab documents that this is a 900 S (low pressure turbo) registration number. Who is right ? And how is it possible ?

Franck, no problem with your VIN number, the 5th digit is a little confusing after 1986 it was for internal purposes only so ignore it. The 8th digit is the crucial one - S is a low pressure turbo 16v OR its a turbo 8v. As yours is an 8v then you have a full blown turbo (no LPT 8v).
See the following for full details:
