1995 Volvo 850 any other model Downpipe for 850?

Post by and1one1 »

Hello

Been searching 850 3 inch DP for a while.

Does any other Volvo model Downpipe fit 850?

If not, which is the most easiest and closest one to modify for fitment

Seems like impossible to find a good bargain for 850 downpipe

The OBX downpipes are cheap and have been super popular for the 850, but I don't know if they are available right now.

I know the OBX Downpipes. And that site. They dont ship to ETA area. I live in Finland.

Ebay doesnt have any 850 downpipes.

Does someone know if V70 or some other model downpipe fit? Im planning to modify some other models version for 850 if its not impossible

You question is answered at the site. A 98-00 V70 downpipe will work.

The site lists several models of downpipe that interchange easily for your car, that's why I posted it.

Really doesn't take that much to make your own, if you can weld.

Im not good with metal and welding

Thanks for replies, that link was useful anyways!

Even when searching C70/V70/S70 downpipes, im not getting any hits. Ebay, 2nd hand etc etc.

If i cant find new one, im gonna pay someone to make me one.

For sure there is some opinions at the moment, but im not gonna pay like 600 euros for piece of metal.
