    It's kind of an if/then question.

    Are the intercoolers for the xc90 T6 and the xc90 2.5T the same?

    If they are not, do you see any proplem with using a T6 intercooler in a 2.5T?

    If they are the same, am I safe to assume that the intercooler of the 2.5T can handle a turbo bump (ie., 16T turbo)?

    Thanks!
    05 S40 T5 fwd
    Elevate IC, intake pipe, silicone hoses, CBT, TCV, tune & torque mount
    Spec SMF, Snabb shorth throw shifter & s60r clutch
    Viva cross drilled/slotted rotors, EST DP & cat back
    I definitely need some sticky summer tires. To be continued.....

    We haven't tested it, but based on Volvo parts look up information the intercoolers appear to be the same.
