yes...but u need to consider the fact that volvo made the engine displacement smaller to allow more metal for better heat dissipation from the higher pressure turbo.

a mbc, a ecu (to keep stock ecu from pulling back power)...this'll make it jsut about as fast as any chipped turbo models.

if u do want to install a new turbo, either the 15g or 16t or 18t... u'd just have to make sure the engine is cooled enough...something like aquamist may help...
