R Exhaust Manifold

Volvo has upgraded the exhaust manifold on the 5-cylinder turbo models several times over the years and the latest version found on the new S60R and V70R is excellent. The new runner paths and outlet configuration result in measurable improvements in exhaust flow and reduced exhaust gas temps. Better flow means more power and reduced temps means less stress on the engine. This is a popular option when upgrading the turbo on 1994 to 2000 T-5 models. It can also be used as an upgrade on 2001 to 2004 S60 and V70 T-5 models. Early manifolds are also prone to cracking, this one makes a great replacement. These manifolds are Volvo originals. If your mounting hardware is original, you may want to consider replacing it when you install the manifold as it is not uncommon for it to break in the process.
