Default S70 2,0T vs 850 T5

Hello

I have a Volvo S70 2,0T 132kW. My questions is - what's the difference between my car and a Volvo 850 T5 (2,0 155kW)? If you look under the hood they look the same.Does the S70 have adownforced T5 engine. What are the differences: the turbo, the ECU settings, the turbo nozzles, etc.
(I put the subject under V70 by mistake at first)

1. The T5 is an HPT and your car is an LPT

HPT = High Pressure Turbo
LPT = Low Pressure Turbo

2. That means your turbos are different. Meaning the HPT (T5) has a bigger turbo and your LPT (2.0T) has a smaller turbo.

3. Your ECU's are not the same either.

4. I don't know what you mean by turbo nozzels.

But the turbos are compatible? aren't they? The HPT fits my car aswell.
Is the ECU difference only in the settings or are they completely different?
