    hi mate

    The turbo off a 2.5 will not be the right one, you will be down on power. Volvo never made a 2.5 t5 until later than that.

    The one you are after is a 16t I think its called, if you can find an 18t or 19t they are not too much bother to fit I dont think.

    There are loads of 16t's on ebay

    1998 Toyota previa 2.4 LPG
    7 seats and still room for my dog
    Not as quick as my old t5 though!

    God I miss her...
