Turbo Swap

The only thing that comes to mind that im not completely sure about would be the oil and coolant return lines.

The turbos are the same, and will work in either car, but the holes where those lines go in may be different on a P2. But like I said im not completely sure about that one.

Stone the guy may just be saying that because its a pain in the ass the change them and he doesnt want to do it lol.

So the return lines are plumbed the same all the way up to when? Just so i know later.

P2 cars with 16T usually have both water cooling pipes on the inside (closer to the manifold), unlike Justin's T5 which has them both on the outside. To put a 16T (from S60) on to my '98, I had to remove one of the core plugs on the outer side & thread the hole. I do believe this would also be true of a 99-00. Either way, inside or out, you will most likely have to pop a core plug & thread one side to work on a P1 car.

Excellent answer. Thanks.
