How could this be? I thought the last year for the 240 turbo was 85? Did someone just make this car up? HMM?

My guess is whoever listed the car was a dumbass... or a jackass. The car was never setup to be a turbo, has none of the mounting in the car, the only option was if someone had converted it... then uncoverted it... but highly doubtful since you would see some leftover items in the engine bay.

It is not hard/uncommon to turbocharge the higher compression volvo motors, and is quite easy. I jsut don't think it was ever done to this car.

There's a reason the description mentions "The Turbo does not work." Mainly because it doesn't exist.

Looks like they harvested the small gauges and tach from a Turbo, but left the turbo and associated plumbing behind.
