I just brought my wagon to stage 0 and am now looking to have some more fun. I am also interested in an 850R ECU that would work with my 95'. Anyone?!?

Nobody can tell you how to get from point A to Point B if they don't know what Point A is.

Point A in this case would be the configuration of the 1995 850T in detail. Engine family ID off the block and Volvo ECU part number taken off the ECU. No guessing, no books, visually confirm both.

Will do.

Actually, for a 95 all we need to know is: does your engine have EGR?

ECU number is entirely irrelevant. It wouldn't hurt to confirm it is a 2.3 (HPT) engine, not a 2.4 that someone snuck in there on an engine swap, but that wouldn't change the fitness for an R ECU.

Will a T5 ECU work? I have one from a 98.

I think the issue is yours is a 4.4 ecu and his car was made with a 4.3, so potential problems.
He can buy an 850R tune from ARD Ideas for about $120
