Hi all,

Simon (Sholtby) kindly posted a message on the 850/70 forum about a 16T turbo for sale. I have spoken to the seller, and have first refusal on this item. I have a photo of the Turbo, and it looks the same as the one on my 855R, only it has a cranked exhaust casting,ie my Downpipe wont fit. The design actually looks more efficient than mine!!

I have some questions that I would be very grateful if anyone could answer them:-

1. Will it fit my Manifold?

2. Will there be any improvement over my current Turbo (Also 16T)?

3. Will I be able to buy a Downpipe that will fit this Turbo and my 855?

4. What model of Volvo is this Turbo designed to fit..V70R??

If I get this one, then my current 16T will go on my T5, along with spare manifold and exhaust system.
