Depends on the flange. Some have straight and while others have angled flanges. Not sure which is which. Go over to www.volvospeed.com and click to enter their message board. Much more over there about this than here.

Nope, won't fit. You'll want to look for something from a '96 or '97 850 Turbo/T5 or another '98 S70.
