will a t5r turbo fit a volvo c70 2.0lpt and what modification will i need to do and please say it does i need more powerrrrrrrrr

That will be a 15g mate and it will bolt straight on not sure about the oil rtn pipe though but some person clever than me will tell you (i have a couple for sale) http://www.vpcuk.org/forums/showthread.php?t=27137
T-5R's use the 15G turbo the same as a normal T-5, your C70 has got a 12T. Because its still in the Mitsubishi TD04 turbo family i believe it will bolt straight onto your exhaust manifold fine, you'll need a new downpipe to match that of the new turbo, & either fuelling adjustment or remap to compensate for the extra boost
hmm this is starting to sound like a plan and any ideas on how much it will cost as i can get a turbo for £50
[quote=PUNTO60s;287796]hmm this is starting to sound like a plan and any ideas on how much it will cost as i can get a turbo for £50[/quote] the turbo is at mine m8 and a think the oil pips are there aswell , cant remember
no bother m8 lookin into it at the probs do it like just dont want to get it and its guna cost a bloody fourtune but thats wot its guna cost for more power lol
[quote=PUNTO60s;287806]no bother m8 lookin into it at the probs do it like just dont want to get it and its guna cost a bloody fourtune but thats wot its guna cost for more power lol[/quote] a think with just the turbo , it should put you past the 200bhp mark like m8, they run 240 on thr t5r like
sounds like a plan like goin to luck into it and get back to you about the turbo but by the sounds of it i probs will lol, and you think i will need new intercooler
[quote=PUNTO60s;287830]sounds like a plan like goin to luck into it and get back to you about the turbo but by the sounds of it i probs will lol, and you think i will need new intercooler[/quote] am not sure what intercooler is on yours like
have you had a remap on the car yet and what year is your car mate
[quote=smithy;287859]have you had a remap on the car yet and what year is your car mate[/quote] no mate only done the panel filter mate and 2001
[quote=PUNTO60s;287861]no mate only done the panel filter mate and 2001[/quote] you would be better off finding a 16t off a 2000 onwards s60/v70 t5 and do the supporting mods and custom remap
[quote=smithy;287864]you would be better off finding a 16t off a 2000 onwards s60/v70 t5 and do the supporting mods and custom remap[/quote] see i can get a 15g t5r turbo for £50 so have the turbo and a new s60 v70 t5 turbo sounds expensive

[quote=smithy;287864]you would be better off finding a 16t off a 2000 onwards s60/v70 t5 and do the supporting mods and custom remap[/quote] what supporting mods would i need for the 16 t as you said i would be better of cheers
[quote=PUNTO60s;289417]what supporting mods would i need for the 16 t as you said i would be better of cheers[/quote] downpipe and good exhaust would be good to go with turbo and a custom remap
[quote=smithy;289451]downpipe and good exhaust would be good to go with turbo and a custom remap[/quote] just been luckin into it with me uncle and dont think it will work cos of the compression rate
[quote=PUNTO60s;289483]just been luckin into it with me uncle and dont think it will work cos of the compression rate[/quote] what is the compression ratio of your engine
The compression ratio on the 2 litre will be too high to accept the larger turbo. Fuel will just go bang - a lot - without the need for a spark!! From the moment I saw this thread - the words - just buy a T5 - sprang to mind. I wish to say at this point according to my research - I may be entirely wrong.

Cars can run higher compression ratios without problem. Most newer turbo cars run a compression ratio of 9.0 or higher. They are mainly however LPT cars but can be tuned with HPT in mind on standard internals so if the car is mapped well and all components are up to scratch a higher compression ratio is fine. 9.0 is not really that much higher than the T5 anyway and if good safety measures are incorporated such as WI and the strict use of decent high octane fuels, running a larger turbo will not be a problem. The OP must use someone who will get the car mapped well to suit a larger turbo though as the map is the main factor (other than the owner lol) when it comes to going tits up.
Smiffy has spoken much sense here - I agree that it makes sense to remap the original turbo - if keeping the car is the aim. However if POWER!! grr! is the aim then this route has limitations. Alan - I am sorry but it has nothing to do with the strength of the conrods - but you'll be glad to know that it appears I was wrong. According to my Haynes destruction manual here are the facts... Engine code B5204T - 1984cc 20 Valve turbocharged engine - has a compression ration of 8.4:1 and a stroke of 77.0mm Engine T5 engine - B5234T - 2319cc 20 Valve turbocharged engine - has a compression ration of 8.5:1 Stroke is longer at 90mm So it would appear that I maybe entirely wrong and would apologise for assuming - 15G/16T city here we come. As with any forced induction - heat and AFR will be key to getting a good result. The only limitation as I see it to big power is the capacity of the engine.
I never mentioned anything about specific parts or specific strength of those parts. In fact I myself am going to be running a higher compression ratio than standard but as I said due to the map that will accompany the higher compression ratio it will work as I want it to as it will be done correctly. You are correct on heat being a factor but if your car is mapped well and all parts are kept in good order your car will run and work well when utilising a higher compression ratio. Many tuners now building high spec Cosworth engines are in fact leaning towards high compression ratios (12.5-1) and a well specced turbo to suit the demands the car will be used for. There are a lot of other factors leading up to speccing a high compression ratio but all I was getting at was IF the car is mapped well a higher compression ratio is not a limiting factor but can be a good thing if you know how to use maps to suit. So to the OP get advice from your tuner before going ahead with anything you intend to do.
