Im thinking about putting a turbo charger in my 2003 volvo s60. The engine is a B5244S , 2.4L. Will a turbo from another s60 fit right in?

 

Greetings. I know this is an old thread, but upgrading or adding a turbo in any car can be very expensive, and time consuming, and will require a lot more upgrading, preparation, and necessary customization than you may think.

In your case, trading in your S60 for any turbocharged model (2.4T/2.5T, T3, T5) or maybe even finding a used S60R would probably be your least costly (and safer) options.

Take a look at all three parts of this Mazda Miata being turbocharged just to see how difficult this can be---even for a car that appears turbo-upgrade-ready:

Part 1: Part 2: Part 3:
Hope this helps.


P.S. Trust me; I have a base 2001 S60. I love it too much to trade it in, but I really wish it had a turbo, as well...just not a really big one.
