1998 Volvo V70 T5
1998 Volvo V70 T5 Manual SEJust after a bit of info ref the 2.5T engine. Is it the same as the 2.4 Turbo engine that some V70s came with as its 2430cc and both quote 193bhp which is a bit confusing?

Thanked 2,582 Times in 2,051 PostsThere was the 2319cc t5 engine, and the 2435cc 2.5T engine (and obviously the 2.0 litre variants aswell). 2.4 and the 2.5 engine are the same cc.
I'm guessing they downgraded it to 2.4 as that is what its closest to, and also because of emissions/environmental ratings and such crap. In the first instance, I guess 2.5 looked better (bigger number) back in the 90s1996 Olive Green 850 AWD - Follow the Project - Forged rods, 19T, big blue injectors, 960 TB, 3.25" MAF, Ostrich, 608 binary, arduino data display, active exhaust control with Focus RS tips, 320mm front brake conversion.

Thanked 14 Times in 13 PostsI thought there was also some issue with the cylinder wall thickness causing problems on the 2.5ltr, which is why the 2.4ltr became the 'norm'.
