High pressure turbo models have 2.3L engine (with reinforced engine components), and 0-60 times around 6.5 sec. Faster if you're lucky enough to have a stick shift and/or some modifications.

T-5 and R models have the HPT; in S/V/C70's (and in 1997 850), GLT is equipped with the LPT.

LPT is more responsive for around-town driving as its smaller bore allows it to pressurize faster; HPT is slower to respond (turbo lag) but has better top-end performance.
