Really looking at 18/19T options that can be fitted to a T5-R, but keeping the original turbo intact so the car can be returned to standard.
I still think you should get a 18g and no I didnt mean 18t or 19t.

Do some research on the td04 or 05 18g. Overall a Mich better and stronger turbo than the Ts

I'm running a 18g and it's out if world.

Yes, exhaust and downpipe would be changed anyway and there seems to be a lot more choice from the straight or angle flange turbos. The conical was a bit of a one-off by the looks of it?

So might as well swap for a later turbo, upgrade exhaust and downpipe, and keep the original exhaust and turbo untouched.

The man maths makes sense, lol

Just another follow-up question.

To use an angle flange turbo on an 850, will the -99 on V70 T5 downpipe fit?

As long as its the P1 Yes. Still think getting a 18g is a better option
