Numpty question but whats the difference between a 2.4T and a T5???

[Tallpointy]

: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.
