volvo list the part as part number 8602872.

I keep on hearing about turbo upgrades and the like, so I was wondering what is my turbo's specs and what are the upgrade options for it?

If your car is a 2.0T then it can have a T4 turbo fitted as it is IIRC a 14T, if yours is a T4 then you could have a Turbo Technics Garrett T4 or some other T4 owners have had 16T compressor wheels and housings fitted with very good results.

I hope that makes sense.

Thanks Tim that is the sort of info but mine is a diesel 1.9 and is listed by engine type d4192T3, so I guess its a t3, It is a garrett turbo unit which is pumping over 30psi since the remap. I was just wondering about upgrades I would like to get the turbo to spool up a bit quicker.
