850 subframe

Hi

Tldr: will an 850 non turbo subframe fit an 850 turbo

I need a new subframe for my 1996 Volvo 850 T5 manual, I’ve found one for sale but it’s from a 850 manual non turbo, will this fit ?

I’m presuming it will as the turbo/ exhuast won’t interfere or connect to the subframe ?

Thanks

Looks like I’m all set thanks again, good first experience using this forum
