The turbo is coming off an 02 car, a t5? If so, that will be a 16t turbo. AFAIK your V70R will already have an 18t.

AFAIK the oil and water connections will be in the wrong place as well.

Ah, you might be right then!

Is your current turbo buggered then?

AFAIK (could be wrong!), you will have a straight flange 16t (or possibly 18t?). If you were to fit a P2 16t it will have an angled flange exhaust housing, so you'd need a downpipe to suit. Second hand, they're rare to get hold of, and new very expensive! So you may be better off just getting a 16t from a P1 T5.

Or just split the turbos at the V bands and keep the required exhaust housing.
