Engine swap!!
1 Attachment(s)
Hello everyone, i recently bought a 99 s70 t5 with the 2.3 turbo fwd. The engine has a spun bearing and the 2.3s are extremely hard to find.
i was wondering if anyone knows if i buy a 2.4 engine will it bolt on to my transmission and if i also bought and installed the ecu from the same car that i pulled the engine out of will i have to reflash at the volvo dealership. Thanks in advanced. :p |

The 2.4 will bolt right up. Need a 2.4 turbo engine for the oiling. Or you can add the oil drain hole if you drill the block on a NA. Where are you located that 2.3s are hard to find ?? Please add location in your "User CP". Don't know about the reflash. |
Thank you for the response. Im not to sure what you mean by drilling the block on an na cause they are both turbos.
Some one told me today that i should also swap the 2.3 turbo, injectors and ecu to the 2.4 for extra power but that i would need premium fuel to compensate for the higher compression ratio. would you have anything to add or take away from that statement? Also What else would i have to do to complete the swap? |
GO on Car-part.com I saw a few 2.3 engines available. Unless you have already got the 2.4 I would go with a direct swap 2.3....Just my .02
