Re: What brakes do turbos have in USA models ? V70-XC70 98

posted by  someone claiming to be Ray Niblett on  Sat Apr 24 14:43 CST 1999 [RELATED]

Europe gets a T5 and T5R. The T5R has bigger brakes and a

viscous coupled (limited slip) differential. Speedo goes to

a 160 MPH too (according to photos I have seen). Front

spoiler is a bit different and I think it produces a

bit more power (250 HP vs 236).

The brakes on my S70T5 are identical to my wifes' 95 850 GLT

(non-turbo). The brake booster units are different, though

(between our two cars).
