Question How to tell if engine is HP?

Hi folks:
How can I tell which engine is in my car? LP or HP
I does have the 17" tires.
Thanks

Go to any free online Volvo Vin decoder - and it should come up in the results...

My C70 Vin shows the following result:

Style / Body: HPT 2DR Convertible FWD 0

I hope this helps!

Those are turbo applications. You either have a high pressure turbo or a low pressure. It depends on the year of the car. I'm pretty sure all newer style c70s came with lpt.
