:help: Having just had my 850 T5 written off by a LHD lorry on the M25 I'm now on the hunt for a new motah. I like the look of the V70 phase 2 estates but (and now here's the embarasing bit...) What is the diference between a V70 2.4T and a V70 T5 2.4 ??? I have tried searching the site but all I can see is that for some reason you cannot RICA a 2.4T up to the same power as the T5. Is there a mod that can be done to the 2.4T to get it going properly? Can anyone help? Ta, Darryn

The T5 engine is 2.3 high pressure Turbo unless its a new T5 and then its 2.5 high pressure Turbo 2.4T is a low pressure Turbo

On the phase 2 cars, there is no such engine as the 2.4T as far as I know?? There is a 2.5T (with a low pressure turbo). The 2.4 is normally aspirated. The T5 engine is a 2.4 in capacity but would be branded as a T5 engine.
