Default Installing a turbo on a 1994 850 Sedan

Is it possible to install an aftermarket turbo on a 850 sedan? Or if i want a turbo will i have to buy a 850 with a stock turbo?

What your asking is it possible to turbo a non turbo Volvo.

The answer to that is yes. However it isn't just as easy as slapping a turbo on your car. You need....

1. Turbo
2. Downpipe
3. Catback
4. Intercooler
5. Intercooler hard pipes
6. Turbo hoses
7. Oil or water lines
8. Major ECU tuning done through dyno tuning.

To do it right your looking at a good $3k+.

Yes you can install an aftermarket turbo, might need to do something custom to make it fit and yes you can use a stock 850 turbo and make it fit. But you need everything listed above plus some stuff to make it run properly.
